For those purchasing property in the area, Smethwick has an average property price of £187,140. If you prefer to rent, the average asking rent is currently £743 pcm.
Summer is a very popular time of year to move house in the town, with June being the most popular month amongst our users. We found that the average cost of moving house is £929 but this may vary depending on a number of different factors.
As Birmingham is one of the largest cities in the West Midlands, we’ve used our data from this area to ensure a more accurate average for this section of the guide. According to our unique data, the average cost of a removal company in Birmingham is £929. However, it’s important to note that your final price will vary depending on a variety of factors such as the exact location, distance to be travelled and the number of items being moved. To show how much these prices can fluctuate, we discovered that the highest cost for this area was £1,183 whilst the cheapest was £676.
If you’re looking to move a 3-bedroom house in Birmingham or any of the surrounding areas, you can expect to pay an average moving cost of around £1,127. Don’t forget to compare removal quotes before choosing a company to ensure you’re connected with a verified and experienced removals firm. Compare My Move can match you with up to 6 reliable moving companies in your local area - simply complete our online form to get started.
After analysing our unique removal data, our team discovered that the most popular month to move house in Smethwick is June, with approximately 12.96% of our users choosing this moving date. Summer saw a spike in the number of removals booked for this area, which isn’t surprising as the summer weather often creates the perfect conditions for moving house. The rest of the UK also prefers a summer move, further proving its viability.
Despite the increase in competition, a summer house move is often ideal for many families across the country as the school holidays ensure there’s no disruption in children’s education. Moving house can be chaotic and stressful and so many parents won’t want to add to the pressure. Don’t get left behind by booking a removals company too late - compare quotes as early as possible to beat the competition and save you both time and money along the way.
Our research also found that both April and December are tied as the least popular months to move in Smethwick, with only 2.47% of users choosing each of these dates. As April is so close to exam season, it’s understandable why many families would avoid moving house then. It’s also not surprising to see December so low in numbers as it’s often difficult moving during the holiday period. It can bring too much pressure and become much too expensive.
With 31.48% of users booking on this day, Friday is the most popular day of the week to move house in Smethwick. Friday is often popular amongst movers as the following weekend provides ample time to unpack and settle into the new home without having to disrupt the working week. Traffic will also be calmer on occasion, meaning a much smoother journey.
Sunday was the least popular day to move with only 4.32% of users choosing this date. This isn’t surprising to see as many conveyancing offices and estate agents will be closed on this day of the week, meaning a possible disruption in the property chain. This means that if you encounter any issues on your moving day, the delay may take even longer as you won’t be able to contact your estate agent or solicitor.
Moving house on a Sunday also means having to unpack throughout the working week is often less than ideal. However, if your schedule allows it, it may save you money to book a removal for this time of the week. Our previous data revealed that Sunday is actually the cheapest day to book a house move and will also mean less competition.
For those considering moving outside of Smethwick, we’ve also used our data to uncover the most popular locations for movers who are leaving the town.

Despite the fairly affordable average property price of approximately £187,140, there are still many more housing opportunities outside of Smethwick that will be more ideal depending on your personal circumstances. As Birmingham is a large and popular city in the West Midlands, it’s not surprising to see many movers flock to this area. Whether it’s for job opportunities, larger homes or to reduce your commuting time, no matter what your requirements, our dedicated team can get you packed up and on the move in no time.
To help you during the house-hunting process, our team has done all the vital research for you to ensure a more efficient search. Below, we’ve listed the top 4 locations for movers leaving Smethwick, including each area’s average property price for comparison. We hope this information will help you budget accordingly and ensure you find the perfect home for you.
Despite a much higher average property price of £229,670, Birmingham is first on our list of popular locations.
