Properties We Cover in Longbridge
Understanding the property mix helps us plan the right crew size, van, and equipment for your move.
Longbridge Removals and Deliveries
Longbridge sits in the south-west of Birmingham, centred on the B31 postcode. It is a working area with a mix of terraced streets, modern new-builds, and a busy retail park anchored by the Longbridge regeneration site near Longbridge Lane.
Giant Van has been moving people in and out of this part of Birmingham for years, and we know exactly what the job involves here.
Our man and van service costs between £45 and £300 depending on load size and distance. That covers a driver, a transit van, loading help, and safe delivery to your new address. There are no hidden charges. The price you see in your quote is the price you pay.
We handle all types of moves from this area. Student moves from flats near the Bournville College campus on Bristol Road South. Single-item deliveries along Longbridge Lane. Full flat clearances in the Rubery and Frankley roads. Whatever the job, we bring the right vehicle and the right people.
Every move is fully insured. Your belongings are covered from the moment we load them to the moment we place them in your new home. We also carry public liability insurance, so you are protected throughout the job. That is not standard with every van operator in the area, but it is standard with us.
Handling Longbridge Access Challenges
Longbridge has some specific access challenges that our drivers know well.
The Longbridge retail and business quarter near Longbridge Lane has restricted loading bays and shared delivery zones. If you are moving from a flat above the commercial units, tell us in advance so we can plan loading times around the restrictions.
The residential streets off Bristol Road South, including Tessall Lane and Groveley Lane, are narrow in places.
Our drivers use smaller transit vans for these roads to avoid blocking passing traffic. We never send a luton-size vehicle onto a street where it cannot manoeuvre safely.
The A38 Bristol Road is the main arterial route connecting Longbridge to central Birmingham and to the south.
Traffic can build significantly between 7am and 9am and again from 4pm to 6pm. We recommend booking your move start time at 8:30am or later to miss the worst of the Bristol Road queues. Morning midweek slots move fastest.
For longer-distance moves starting in Longbridge, the M42 junction at Longbridge is close.
Access to the motorway network is straightforward, which keeps long-distance costs down. Our long-distance man and van service starts from £500 and covers moves to any UK destination.
Parking on West Heath Road and Longbridge Lane can be tight during school run hours.
Our drivers will identify the best loading spot on arrival and handle any parking logistics themselves.

Full Longbridge Area Coverage
Giant Van covers the full B31 postcode and all of the surrounding neighbourhoods in south-west Birmingham.
Our drivers work regularly across this area and know the local streets well.
From our Longbridge base area we regularly cover Northfield to the north, which shares the Bristol Road South corridor.
We cover Rubery to the south-west, a growing residential area with a mixture of 1970s semi-detached houses and newer estates off Leach Green Lane.
We cover Rednal, known for the Lickey Hills access routes and the narrow residential roads near Rose Hill.
We also cover Bournville to the north-east, home to the Cadbury estate and the distinctive Bournville Village Trust properties.
These are often period houses with smaller doorways and tight garden paths, and our teams are experienced in careful furniture handling in these properties.
Frankley, to the west of Longbridge on the B45 border, is another area we serve regularly.
The Frankley estate has several high-rise blocks with service lifts. We are familiar with the access procedures and timing restrictions on those sites.
Moving further afield but still within regular reach: we cover Selly Oak, Stirchley, Kings Norton, and Bartley Green.
All of these are within our standard man and van rate from the B31 area.
For moves originating in Longbridge and heading to other Birmingham areas, central London, or anywhere in the UK, call for a tailored quote.

Man with Van vs Full Removals in Longbridge: Which Do You Need?
Here is how to make the right call for your Longbridge move.
It is also the correct choice if your move involves tight access like the narrow residential streets off Tessall Lane or a block of flats where a large vehicle cannot park safely.
If you have a full kitchen to pack, multiple bedroom sets, or large fragile items like mirrors and artwork, a removals team with a bigger vehicle will complete the job faster and more safely.
The quote engine will recommend the right service level based on your inventory. You can also message us in the live chat and describe your move. We will tell you honestly which option fits your situation and your budget.

Is your man and van service in Longbridge insured?

Many independent van operators do not carry this insurance, so it is worth checking before you book with anyone. With us, it is included in every job, no extras required.
Can you help with parking on move day in Longbridge?
Our driver will identify the best loading spot on arrival and manage parking logistics on the day. If you are on a permit-controlled street near the Longbridge retail area or West Heath Road, we recommend contacting Birmingham City Council at least 48 hours beforehand to suspend a bay. We can advise on the process when you book.
How do I track my Giant Van driver on the day?
GPS tracking is included in every booking. Open the Giant Van app on move day and you will see your driver's live location from the moment they set off towards you. You will also receive a notification when they are approximately 15 minutes away. There is no need to call ahead or wait outside.
Do you move pianos in the Longbridge area?
Yes. Giant Van offers specialist piano removal in Longbridge between £150 and £400. The price depends on the type of piano and the floor level at collection and delivery. We use piano boards, proper strapping, and trained crew. This is not included in a standard man and van booking, so please mention your piano when you get your quote.
What is the best day to book a man with van in Longbridge?
Tuesday to Thursday midweek mornings give you the most available slots and the easiest road conditions in Longbridge. Avoid the end of the month, Friday afternoons, and September if possible, as these are our busiest periods. If you need to move at a peak time, book at least 48 to 72 hours ahead to secure your preferred slot.
