Small home move
Solihull to Birmingham
Boxes, small furniture and access details for a local mover to review.
Solihull isn't like the rest of the West Midlands. It's the bit where the suburbs turn into Warwickshire countryside — Tudor Grange Park, Malvern Park, and roads lined with mature oaks rather than terraced houses. The properties here range from 1930s semis in Shirley to £1m+ homes off Warwick Road, and that changes what a move looks like entirely. Submit your postcodes, item list and access notes so a verified mover can review the details and send you quote options.

Solihull moves tend to be larger and more furniture-heavy than inner-city jobs. The B91-B94 postcodes include some of the most expensive properties in the West Midlands, particularly around Dorridge and Knowle where 4- and 5-bed detached houses are common. These moves need more time, bigger vans and sometimes two loaders. Shirley and Olton are more mixed — 1930s semis with driveways, which are easier for van access. The A41 Warwick Road runs through Solihull and connects to Birmingham, but it's a slow route during rush hour. The M42 is the faster alternative for moves heading north.

Start Your Move RequestSolihull occupies the B91-B94 postcodes on Birmingham's south-eastern edge, and it's a different world from the city next door. The town centre has the Touchwood shopping centre, a Waitrose, and streets of 1930s semis with carefully maintained front gardens.
But it's the surrounding villages that make Solihull distinctive. Knowle and Dorridge, a few miles south, are among the most desirable addresses in the West Midlands — large detached houses, tree-lined roads, and properties that often need a bigger van or two loaders.
Shirley, closer to Birmingham, has more 1930s semis and is a popular first-time buyer area. Balsall Common, further out, is a growing village with new-build estates alongside older properties.
The A41 Warwick Road runs through Solihull and connects to Birmingham city centre, but it's slow — the M42 is the faster route for moves heading north. Birmingham Airport and the NEC are on Solihull's doorstep, which means the A45 corridor can be busy at unusual hours.
Solihull has no Clean Air Zone, which makes it an easier collection point than Birmingham for moves into the city. A verified mover reviewing a Solihull request will check the property size (larger homes need more time), driveway access, and whether the A41 or M42 is the better route.

Knowle and Dorridge are Solihull's premium addresses — large detached houses, long driveways and mature gardens. These are typically bigger moves that need more time, sometimes a larger van or two people loading. The A41 Warwick Road connects both villages to Solihull town centre. Dorridge has a train station with car park that's useful as a landmark. Properties off the main roads often have private drives that are easy for van access.
Shirley and Olton are the more affordable side of Solihull — 1930s semis with bay windows, driveways and front gardens. These are among the most straightforward properties in the Solihull area for a van, with good road access from the A41 and the M42 close by. The Stratford-upon-Avon Canal runs through Shirley, and some properties near the canal have narrow access lanes.
Balsall Common is a growing village between Solihull and Kenilworth, with a mix of older cottages and new-build estates. Further out towards Hampton-in-Arden and Barston, you're into narrow country lanes and properties with no roadside parking. If your move involves a rural address, mention the road width and whether a standard van can reach the property.
