Student removals & storage Birmingham, West Midlands
Students generally need to move house more frequently than families do, yet they often try and perform the move themselves leading to frustration, broken items and delays. Whether you're moving from one student hall of residence to another, to a new student house, or simply moving on to somewhere else, we can help. We know the student areas in Birmingham, the Black Country and the West Midlands - and the surrounding areas - very well, and are aware of some of the issues these locations and student housing can bring.
You may not have a lot to move, but what you do have is precious to you - and you want someone to move your belongings that will give them the care and attention they deserve.
We have some general advice on choosing a removal company - a reliable mover can help you reduce stress when you've got other things to also be doing at the same time.
International student moves
Not all student moves are within the UK. If you're an international student looking to return home to China, Japan, America, Canada, Australia or anywhere else in the world, we can help.
Are you heading off to study abroad? We perform small international moves, and we can move you anywhere in the world that your studies - or life itself - takes you.
We're also European removal experts, and our trucks are in Europe every week. If you're moving to - or from - Europe for your studies, or returning after your studies are complete, we can help. You don't need to fill the truck with your belongings, part loads are not a problem!
Tips to save on moving
Like most students, you're probably on a budget. So here's a couple of quick tips to help you save on moving costs:
- Group together with others moving nearby - most students move about the same time of year, so see if anyone in your house or halls of residence is also moving - you may be able to save money by all of you moving at the same time and splitting the cost
- Get organised before the move - know exactly what you're taking, and try to have everything packed in advance of the removal men arriving and access to your new home sorted before moving day
Storage for students
Self storage facilities often have cheap teaser prices, but in the long run they can cost more. Our storage is available for as long or as short as you need it, at reasonable prices and we can collect and deliver to your door! There's several options for your storage needs, so you can choose the right storage for you.

How can we improve our service?
I’m not sure. It was really excellent - the online portal where you book was a bit unintuitive on mobile and I had to do it over the phone with Luke in the end
