No Corner of Birtley Left Out
Based in Newcastle, birtley NE9 and Washington NE37/NE38 are both former mining communities that have grown into established residential areas, but differ in layout and access conditions.
Washington is a new town with a planned grid of residential 'villages', each connected by distributor roads — access for removal vans is generally excellent throughout.
Birtley is older in character, with some tighter roads near the original village centre and a mix of period and modern housing.
Both towns have good A-road connections — Birtley via the A167 to the A1(M), Washington via the A182 and A194(M).
For moves between the two towns, the drive via the A693 is around 5 miles.
For long-distance removals south from Birtley — to Harrogate, Sheffield, or London — the A1(M) access from the A167 is one of the North East's best motorway connection points.
Giant Van covers both communities at the same pricing.
