House Removals in Northfield, Birmingham

Northfield has some access quirks that catch removal teams off guard.

Bristol Road South (A38) is the main artery through the area and carries heavy traffic during peak hours, particularly between 7:30am and 9:00am and again from 4:30pm to 6:30pm. Booking your move for mid-morning avoids the worst of this.

The streets off Bell Hill and near Northfield Shopping Centre have very limited on-street parking.

Double yellow lines cover most of the main junctions. For moves in these areas, Giant Van recommends securing a parking suspension permit from Birmingham City Council at least five working days before moving day. We can advise on this process when you book.

Bunbury Road and the surrounding roads near Northfield train station have a mix of Victorian terraces with narrow front paths.

Some properties have only a short entry corridor leading to stairs, which affects how quickly large furniture can be moved. Our team carries furniture straps and takes protective coverings for tight hallways as standard.

Tessall Lane and Longbridge Lane on the southern edge of Northfield are broader suburban roads with driveways on most properties.

These moves tend to be more straightforward logistically. However, Longbridge's regeneration area around the former Rover works has created ongoing road changes, so our drivers check live routes before every job.

Flats above the shops on Bunbury Road and Church Road often have no lift access.

Our crews are experienced with stair carries and quote for these appropriately. Always mention floor number and lift availability when booking.

Giant Van operates across the whole of Northfield and the surrounding districts.

Our most common coverage areas in this part of Birmingham include the following.

We also serve the B29 overlap area around Selly Oak and the university district.

These areas border the Lickey Hills and offer some of Northfield's most sought-after family homes. Access is generally good on these roads.

These are largely post-war estates with wide residential streets and good van access.
