Common removal company services
Choose a professional whose experience matches the scale and practical requirements of your job.
Full moves between houses, including loading, transport and unloading of furniture, boxes and household belongings.
Moves where stairs, lifts, loading access and building rules may need to be considered before the day of the move.
Smaller local moves, single-room moves, furniture collections and jobs that do not require a full-size removal crew.
Optional packing and unpacking help, including boxing belongings and preparing fragile or awkward items for transport.
Short- or longer-term storage can help when completion dates do not line up or a move needs to happen in stages.
Moves involving unusually heavy, delicate or high-value items where the company may need specialist equipment or extra planning.
Removal prices depend on the amount being moved, distance, crew size, access, parking and whether you add packing or storage. Current 2026 UK guides give these useful benchmarks for moves of up to around 50 miles:
Indicative UK guidance checked August 2026. MyJobQuote says its cost data is gathered from real UK quotes. Checkatrade separately puts a standard local move at roughly £500–£700 and a two-person team plus van at about £50–£80 per hour. Actual Birmingham quotes can be higher or lower.
Compare like for like
Give each company the same practical information. A cheap headline price is not useful if one quote excludes packing, dismantling, waiting time or difficult access that another quote includes.

Birmingham move planning
Birmingham's mix of houses, terraces and flats — together with street-by-street parking restrictions — can change how close a removal crew can get to the property and how long loading takes. These are two local details worth checking before the move.
Birmingham City Observatory's Census 2021 housing briefing reports that 35.6% of households were in semi-detached homes, 27.8% in terraced homes and 21.0% in purpose-built flats or tenements. For removals, that mix matters: the same size move can involve very different carrying distances, stairs, lift access and vehicle positioning depending on the property.
Birmingham City Council says parking bay suspensions and dispensations require at least 48 hours' notice for consideration. If the removal vehicle needs controlled space close to the property, checking the restrictions early can prevent a long carry from the van or a last-minute access problem.

Local to Birmingham
Enter the postcode where the move starts so the request can be matched to professionals who cover that part of Birmingham. Examples of areas homeowners may be moving from or to include:
Travel time, parking and access can change significantly across Birmingham. Giving the real collection and destination details helps a removal company judge vehicle size, crew time and the likely duration of the move.
How it works
The process is designed to avoid calling removal firms one by one while still leaving the hiring decision with you.
Open the Removal Companies quote form, add the postcode and explain the property size, destination, date and any extra services you need.
Your request can be matched with suitable professionals. Up to three who are interested in the job can respond and get in touch.
Review profiles, genuine verified customer feedback and quotes, ask any final questions, then choose who you want to hire. There is no obligation to proceed.
Before you hire
Price matters, but the cheapest figure is not automatically the best fit. Check what the quote covers and whether the company is comfortable with the practical details of your particular move.
Check whether labour, transport, fuel, packing materials, dismantling and waiting time are included or charged separately.
MyJobQuote operates a closed-loop feedback system: reviews are submitted by homeowners who had work completed through the service by a verified trade member.
Make sure the company knows about stairs, lifts, keys, parking, completion-time uncertainty and any building access restrictions before moving day.
Questions
Useful answers before you post the job.
There is no single Birmingham price because the quote depends heavily on property size, volume, distance and access. As UK guidance, MyJobQuote lists about £320–£420 for a 1-bedroom move up to 50 miles, £520–£640 for 2 bedrooms and £800–£950 for 3 bedrooms. Get a tailored quote for the actual route and inventory.
Yes. Man with a Van is one of the services within MyJobQuote's Removal Companies category, alongside house removals, specialist removals and storage.
If the van cannot park legally and close enough to the property, the move can take longer. Birmingham City Council says parking bay suspensions and dispensations need at least 48 hours' notice for consideration, so check local restrictions well before the move.
MyJobQuote says reviews on trade profiles come from users who had a job completed by a verified trade member and that it operates a closed-loop feedback system designed to protect users from fake reviews.
Up to three interested local professionals can get in touch about the same job, giving you options to compare without creating an open-ended stream of responses.
No. Posting the job is free for homeowners and there is no obligation to hire. Compare the profiles, feedback and quotes and proceed only if one of the options suits you.
Post the move once, hear from interested local professionals and check their reviews and quotes before deciding who to hire.
