Man and Van Service in Shirley, Birmingham
Shirley sits in the south of Birmingham, stretching across postcodes B90 and parts of B91. It is a busy residential suburb with a strong mix of terraced housing, semi-detached homes, and modern flats. If you are in Monkspath, Dickens Heath, or right along the Stratford Road, Giant Van covers every part of Shirley with a professional man and van service.
Same-Day AvailableTrained Team
Our man with van Shirley service starts from £45 for small, single-item collections. Larger moves, such as a one-bedroom flat, typically run between £80 and £150 depending on access, distance, and the number of items. We give you an instant, fixed quote before we arrive so there are no surprises on moving day.
We carry furniture, white goods, boxes, and fragile items. Our team handle everything with care and use blankets, straps, and specialist wrapping where needed. You are not handed a vehicle and left to it. A trained mover is with you from start to finish. That means loading, transport, and unloading at your destination is all taken care of.
Same-day availability makes this service ideal for Shirley residents who need to move quickly. A landlord has given notice, a purchase has completed ahead of schedule, or a spare room needs clearing before a family member arrives. Whatever the reason, we can usually get a van to you within a few hours. Call or book through the Giant Van app to check availability right now.
Access and Logistics in Shirley
Shirley presents a range of access conditions that our drivers know well.
The Stratford Road (A34) is the main artery running through the centre of Shirley. It carries heavy traffic during weekday rush hours, particularly between 7:30am and 9:00am and again from 4:30pm to 6:30pm. If you are moving from a property on or just off the Stratford Road, we recommend booking a slot for mid-morning or early afternoon to avoid unnecessary delays.
Parking can be tight on residential streets such as Haslucks Green Road, Streetsbrook Road, and Bills Lane.
Many of these are permit-controlled zones. You should check whether a short-term parking suspension is needed for moving day. Solihull Council handles these permits for Shirley, and applications can take up to five working days. Our team can advise on what to request when you book.
Dickens Heath, to the south of Shirley, is a purpose-built village with narrow access roads and limited turning space for larger vehicles.
Our standard man and van Luton or long-wheelbase Transit is usually manageable there, but it is worth flagging the access point when you book so we can send the right-sized vehicle.
Monkspath Business Park is another regular job for us.
Commercial moves from office suites along Highlands Road and Stratford Road require careful planning around business hours and lift access. If you need an out-of-hours slot, we offer early morning and weekend bookings at the same rate. GPS tracking on every van means you always know when we are arriving, down to the minute.

6 Tips
These five tips are specific to moving in and around Shirley.
Streets around Haslucks Green Road and Streetsbrook Road fill up fast. Apply to Solihull Council at least five working days in advance to reserve space directly outside your door. This avoids the van parking 50 metres away and costing you extra time.
Wardrobes, bed frames, and dining tables take up a disproportionate amount of van space when assembled. Taking them apart saves space and reduces the number of trips. We can reassemble at the destination if needed, just let us know at the time of booking.
When we unload at your new address, it is far faster for us to place boxes correctly first time. Write the destination room on every side of the box, not just the top.
If you are moving to a flat in Shirley town centre or along Station Road, let us know about stairs, lifts, and entry codes in advance. We plan our time around these, and knowing beforehand means we price your quote accurately too.
Every Giant Van vehicle is GPS-tracked. You will see your mover on a live map from the moment they set off. No need to call and check. This is especially useful if you are juggling a solicitor or estate agent on moving day.

We are fully insured on every job. Goods-in-transit cover is included as standard. Some local operators carry no insurance at all, which means you bear the risk if something is damaged. With Giant Van, your belongings are covered without you needing to ask.
Our quotes are instant and fixed. Enter your details and you get a price immediately. We do not call you back 24 hours later with a revised estimate. The price you see is the price you pay.
Same-day bookings are available most days of the week. We keep slots open specifically for last-minute jobs in Shirley. If you need a van today, call and we will tell you exactly what we have.

Our app makes booking and managing your move simple. You can book, amend, and track your move from your phone. Confirmations and receipts come automatically. No need to chase paperwork.
We are experienced with Shirley's specific access conditions. Permit zones around Haslucks Green Road, the congestion on the A34 during peak hours, and the tight access in Dickens Heath are all familiar to our drivers. We plan around these rather than reacting to them on the day.
Our pricing is transparent. Man and van from £45. Same-day from £80. No hidden charges.

Best Times to Book a Man with Van in Shirley
7 Tips
Here is what we see in practice from our bookings in the B90 and B91 postcodes.
The Stratford Road and Haslucks Green Road are quieter after the school run settles, typically from 9:30am onwards. Traffic on the A34 drops significantly mid-morning compared to the 8:00am peak. If you can move on a Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday between 9:30am and 1:00pm, you will likely get the fastest service.
End-of-month Fridays are the busiest day in our calendar for Shirley and Solihull. Completion dates cluster on Fridays when conveyancing completes, so van availability drops and traffic on the B4102 and surrounding roads is heavier than usual.
Single-item collections, student moves, and flat clearances tend to book for Saturday 8:00am or 9:00am slots before weekend traffic builds up near Shirley town centre and Touchwood Shopping Centre.
Parking restrictions are relaxed on many Shirley streets on Sundays, which means loading is faster.
Slots taken after midday are still available but the afternoon window can fill quickly in summer months.
