Plant hire for Birmingham jobs
Birmingham city centre is 16.9 road miles from our yard on Millfields Road, Wolverhampton (WV4), measured the same way our checkout measures it. That puts delivery to a B2 postcode at £52.42 each way, or £104.84 delivered and collected, all ex VAT. Postcodes in the west of the city are nearer and cost less, and the checkout prices your own postcode before you pay. Book online in about a minute, or call 01902 213089. No insurance needed to hire. You're responsible for the machine while it's with you. You can get a hired-in plant insurance quote at checkout.
Birmingham is a city of semis and terraces: the 2021 Census put 35.6% of households in semi-detached homes and 27.8% in terraced houses. That usually decides the machine. Side access on a semi tends to suit the 1.7 tonne Kubota U17-5, which needs a metre. A garden behind a terrace that you can only reach through a passage is a job for the Kubota K008-5 micro digger at 75 cm. The ground changes across the city as well: the British Geological Survey describes the Mercia Mudstone south-east of the Birmingham Fault as generally impermeable, so test how fast the ground drains before you dig a soakaway there.

Jobs we deliver to in Birmingham
Driveways and dropped kerbs
Birmingham City Council builds every dropped kerb itself, after a £113 application, and its policy asks for a forecourt at least 4.75 m deep. Once that is approved, the U17-5 and the dumper dig out the drive, and a permeable surface keeps you clear of planning permission.
Extension footings
Side and rear extension footings on the semis, dug with the U17-5 to the depth on your building control drawing and loaded straight into the 1 tonne high-tip dumper.
Terrace back gardens
Patios, sheds and garden rooms behind terraced houses, using the K008-5 through the passage and the KM55 breaker on old concrete yards.
Soakaways and drainage
Soakaways, land drains and downpipe trenches. On clay ground, check the drainage with a test pit before you commit to a soakaway.
Sub-bases
Hardcore sub-bases for patios, paths and gravel drives, compacted with the BOMAG BW120 twin-drum roller.
Before the machine arrives in Birmingham
- If the drop point is inside the A4540 Middleway, tell us when you book: that is the Clean Air Zone.
- A skip or materials on the road or pavement needs a council permit first. Birmingham charges £238 a week when a skip permit is applied for after the skip is already down.
- Firm, level ground where the machine comes off the trailer. Soft lawn or wet clay can swallow a machine, and recovery is charged extra.
- Clear width of 75 cm for the K008-5 and 1.0 m for the U17-5, measured at the narrowest point. The dumper and the roller each need about 1.2 m.
- An adult on site for the handover, the condition photos and the safety briefing.

Birmingham questions we get asked
What does delivery to Birmingham cost?
£52.42 each way to a B2 city-centre postcode, which is 16.9 road miles from our yard. The rule is the same everywhere: £40 covers the first 10 miles, then £1.80 a mile, all ex VAT. Postcodes in the west of the city are nearer and cost less.
Do I need permission to dig out a new driveway in Birmingham?
Not for the digging itself. You need Birmingham City Council's approval for the dropped kerb, and planning permission if the new surface is over 5 m² and does not drain. In the Moseley Conservation Area, any new parking area needs planning permission.
Is there a deposit?
No deposit and no trade account. We keep the card you pay with on file and only charge it for damage or loss, under our hire terms.
Do I need my own plant insurance?
No insurance needed to hire. You're responsible for the machine while it's with you. You can get a hired-in plant insurance quote at checkout.
