Solihull moving-day access
Controlled parking and red routes can need advance permission before the removal van arrives
Solihull Council offers parking dispensations for essential works and a separate red-route permit that specifically mentions moving house. On a restricted street, sorting the vehicle position before moving day can avoid delays and enforcement problems.
Parking dispensations should normally be requested at least three working days ahead
The council says a dispensation can allow a vehicle to park in a restricted area where there is a valid reason, including essential works, and advises applying at least three working days before it is needed. If a removal van must stay close to the property, confirm the exact restriction and obtain approval before relying on the space.
Residents on red routes have a separate moving-house permit option
Solihull Council says residents who live on a red route and need to park on the lines outside their home, including for moving house, can apply for a red-route permit. Red-route stopping rules are stricter than ordinary yellow-line restrictions, so give the removal company any approved location and times in advance.

Describe the route from van to front door
A town-centre flat, a house in Shirley and a property in Knowle or Dorridge can involve very different parking and carrying distances. Give access details at both addresses.
Do not assume the van can stop outside. If there are red lines, resident restrictions or limited kerb space, check the council permit route early and tell the mover what has actually been approved.
