The Birmingham to Manchester route is one of the most popular inter-city removal routes in the Midlands and North West. Daley & Co has been making this journey for families and businesses for decades, and our experienced teams know both cities' road networks and access requirements inside out.

Moving from Birmingham

Birmingham is the UK's second-largest city, with a diverse range of property types from Victorian terraces in Moseley and Kings Heath to modern apartments in the city centre. Our Birmingham-experienced team handles all parking suspension applications and access arrangements.

Moving to Manchester

Manchester offers excellent value compared to Birmingham, with a thriving cultural scene, world-class universities, and excellent transport links. Popular destinations for Birmingham movers include Didsbury, Chorlton, Sale, and the city centre.

The Route

The most direct route is via the M6 motorway, with a journey time of approximately 1.5–2.5 hours. This is a comfortable single-day move for most property sizes.
