About student storage in Birmingham city centre
Birmingham city centre has seen a major build-out of purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) over the last decade, with large blocks clustered around Birmingham City University’s City Centre campus on Curzon Street, the New Garden Square area near Lancaster Circus, and along the Aston Triangle close to Aston University. Most central student rentals are in PBSA towers rather than HMO stock. The area sits inside Birmingham’s Clean Air Zone (CAZ).
Birmingham’s CAZ applies a daily charge for non-compliant vehicles in the inner ring-road area. UniMove uses CAZ-compliant vans for all Birmingham city-centre collections, but the charge is reflected in the quote where the vehicle has to enter the zone. Most central PBSA blocks have dedicated loading bays managed by concierge, which we pre-book. Typical Birmingham PBSA residents store four to six boxes for summer.
What students usually store
- Suitcases and boxes

Why students choose collection and storage instead of self-storage
Traditional self-storage often means hiring a van, carrying everything yourself, and paying for more space than you need. UniMove’s student-focused collection and storage service is simpler — especially if you are leaving halls, sharing transport with housemates, or heading home for summer.
