Parking at heathrow. Who is best?

I am looking for some guidance please.
We are booked to fly from Heathrow in August and wondering who is best to park with.
We are getting married in Florida so will have a lot of cases and bags to drag along, as well as a three year old.
I was thinking of a meet and greet parking company but they seem to have a lot of negative reviews, so was hoping that the group could help.

I’ve booked short stay parking just across the road from the terminal and you keep your keys

I always park in the airport official short or long stay. I've heard too many stories to feel confident handing my keys over.

A few of us on here have booked for next Aug and are probably staying at the Premier Inn on Bath Road which is right next door to Purple Parking.

Nothing could be simpler.

Who do you book through?

All I seem to get is meet and greet, which like you I don’t want( bad experience), I also would prefer not to have a shuttle bus, does that exist ? , when you can just park and walk to the terminal ? I don’t know

Yes completely agree - we are going at Easter next year and have done exactly the same thing. Fill up on Premier Inn breakfast (where the kids eat free) before heading next door to drop car off!
