Leasing along the A38 Bristol Road corridor in Weoley Castle
We run leasing for operators across the Birmingham City Council area, and Weoley Castle is one of the patches we cover most often. Between Weoley Castle Square and Griffins Brook Lane trading area there is enough commercial movement that we keep a truck within reach of B29 on every shift. If you can see Weoley Castle Square from where you are standing, the driver already knows the approach. Deliveries usually go to a garage in Weoley Castle or across to Bartley Green, whichever you nominate. Nothing gets sub-contracted out of the Birmingham City Council area. Common collection points: Griffins Brook Lane trading area, the parking by Weoley Castle Square, and semi-detached houses.

We're equally comfortable collecting a single vehicle from a customer's driveway or handling a scheduled run of several vehicles between depots, and we understand that condition reports and mileage matter in this line of work.
The commercial picture in Weoley Castle
Weoley Castle is a residential area under Birmingham City Council, with the main commercial concentration at Griffins Brook Lane trading area and movement funnelled along A38 Bristol Road towards M5 J3. Roughly 5 miles of city sits between Weoley Castle and the centre, which is why we approach from M5 J3 rather than through it. It keeps the job to one visit, which is the whole point. Distances we work to here: 6 miles from the Oldbury yard, 5 to the city centre. Where the vehicle sits on private land rather than a live road, the legal position and the price both change.

How the service works for you
Reallocating vehicles between customers
If a vehicle is being handed to a new lessee, we can move it straight from one customer to the next, or via your depot if a check is needed in between.
Working to your schedule
We know these moves are often planned around contract dates rather than convenience, so we try to be flexible with timing to fit your renewal and return schedules.
End-of-contract collections
When a lease ends, we can collect the vehicle from the customer directly and deliver it to your inspection centre or depot, saving you organising a driver.

Access and routing around Weoley Castle
On local parades the practical limit is turning space, not weight. Access off A4040 outer ring narrows quickly, so a full-length transporter sometimes has to set down and winch.
