Understanding the property mix helps us plan the right crew size, van, and equipment for your move.
Jewellery Quarter Coverage and Services
The Jewellery Quarter sits in the heart of Birmingham, roughly a mile north-west of the city centre. It is one of the most densely populated urban neighbourhoods in the West Midlands, known for its Victorian factory conversions and contemporary apartment blocks along Vyse Street, Spencer Street, and Frederick Street.
Most residents here live in flats, often on upper floors with no lift. That changes how a house removal works.
Giant Van sends crews who know the B18 postcode well. Our teams have worked on removals along Warstone Lane, Graham Street, and the Canal Quarter apartments backing onto the Birmingham Canal. We understand that tight stairwells and shared communal entrances are the norm, not the exception.
House removals in Jewellery Quarter, Birmingham typically fall into two categories: studio or one-bed apartment moves, which start at £250, and larger two or three-bed properties, which range from £400 to £850. Every quote we give covers the full job, labour, van, blanket wrapping for furniture, and basic transit insurance. There are no hidden extras added at the end.
If you are moving from a ground-floor terrace on Hockley Street or a fourth-floor flat with no lift on the Warstone Lane Estate, the price reflects the actual access conditions. We ask about this upfront so the quote you receive is accurate, not adjusted on the day.
Navigating Jewellery Quarter Roads on Moving Day
Jewellery Quarter is a controlled parking zone.
Most of the residential streets around the St Paul's Square conservation area, including Legge Lane, Albion Street, and Caroline Street, have time-restricted bays. On-street parking for a removal lorry is limited during working hours, typically 8am to 6pm Monday to Saturday.
This matters practically.
A standard removals van needs a clear 10-metre space to load efficiently. On narrow streets like Pitsford Street or the tight residential terrace rows off Key Hill Drive, that is not always available without prior planning. We recommend customers apply for a parking suspension through Birmingham City Council at least five working days before the move date.
The standard suspension covers a 10-metre stretch and costs around £55 per day.
We can advise on the application process when you book.
For apartment buildings in the new-build blocks along Newhall Street and the Great Charles Street Queensway corridor, many properties have freight lifts or designated loading bays.
We ask about these during the booking process so our crew brings the right equipment and plans the correct number of crew members.
Larger lorries cannot easily enter Branston Street or the narrower cut-through streets near the jewellery industry workshops.
We route accordingly and use smaller transit vehicles where access is restricted. This keeps the move efficient without causing holdups for residents or local businesses.
Our GPS tracking lets you see your crew's location in real time so you know exactly when to expect them.

Work Out Your Moving CostThings to Do Before Your Jewellery Quarter Move
These five steps will reduce delays and keep costs down.
Birmingham City Council requires a minimum of five working days' notice. Streets around St Paul's Square and Vyse Street fill quickly on weekday mornings with trade deliveries and residents. Book your suspension the moment you confirm your move date.
The majority of apartment buildings on Spencer Street and the Jewellery Quarter development sites have stairwells under 90 centimetres wide. Tell us the width and the number of flights. Our crew can bring two-person carry straps and low-profile furniture sliders at no extra cost.
Bed frames, wardrobes with internal drawers, and extendable dining tables all need to come apart to navigate landings safely. This alone can save 30 to 45 minutes on a typical two-bedroom flat removal.
If you are moving into a property with multiple floors, clear labelling means the crew places items correctly on the first carry. Re-sorting boxes after the move is time most people would rather spend elsewhere.
Many apartment blocks in the B1 and B18 developments require residents to reserve the goods lift or main entrance for a removal. Check with your building management company at least a week before your move date. Failure to do this can delay the job significantly and may affect your final cost.

What Jewellery Quarter Movers Say About Us
Jewellery Quarter has a mix of long-term residents and people moving in or out regularly, particularly from the apartment buildings developed over the past decade along Newhall Street, Albion Street, and the Mint residential complex off Icknield Street.

Every move is handled by experienced, vetted crews. We do not use agency staff or subcontract jobs to third parties. Every crew member who arrives at your door works for Giant Van. This matters when you are trusting people with the contents of your home.

GPS tracking lets you watch the van in real time on move day. For busy residents in B18 who cannot afford to wait around all morning, this removes the uncertainty. You know when the crew is 10 minutes away.
Same-day availability sets us apart from most removals companies in Birmingham. If your situation changes or your completion date moves, call and we will find a solution rather than charge you to reschedule.
