Birmingham Township is West Chester’s southern neighbor. It holds the Route 202 corridor at Dilworthtown, upscale developments off Route 926 and Birmingham Road, Radley Run, and the historic lanes toward Brandywine Battlefield. Families come from the borough and the Main Line for the Unionville-Chadds Ford schools. LiteMovers has moved Birmingham households since 2007 and knows when Route 202 can be crossed.
West Chester’s Doorstep
- ✓Borough to township: from a West Chester twin to a Birmingham colonial with a yard and the schools
- ✓Upscale developments: cul-de-sacs off Route 926 and Birmingham Road with paved drives and HOA rules
- ✓Dilworthtown and the battlefield lanes: 1700s stone homes on narrow roads with stone walls
- ✓Route 202 and 926: the intersection that decides the day’s schedule

From the Borough to a Yard
The most common Birmingham move starts in a West Chester twin or townhouse and ends in a colonial off Route 926. The borough end has on-street parking, permits on some streets, and tight stairs. The township end has a driveway and an HOA that may set truck hours. One crew handles both ends in a day, and we collect the HOA rules at booking.
Timing Route 202
Route 202 and Route 926 at Dilworthtown back up both ways from 7 to 9 a.m. and 4 to 6 p.m. We load in the morning and travel midday, or route over Birmingham Road and Street Road to skip the intersection. For moves within the township the truck often never touches 202.

Dilworthtown and the Battlefield Lanes
The stone houses along Birmingham Road and Meetinghouse Road date to the 1700s, with narrow stairs, low frames, and wide-plank floors. The roads are narrow with stone walls at the edge. We send a shorter truck, measure every large piece on the estimate, protect floors and jambs, and crate the art. Our Chester County packing team handles glass and framed work.
Unionville-Chadds Ford Calendar
Birmingham is in the Unionville-Chadds Ford School District, and summer dates book a month out. Spring and fall are easier. Chester County storage bridges a gap between a borough sale and a township closing. Downsizing from a large colonial uses our senior moving team.
Pianos, Art, and the Finished Basement
Birmingham’s larger homes come with pianos, framed art, and finished lower levels full of sectionals and gym equipment. Pianos ride on a board with a crew trained for them. Art is crated. Gym racks and pool tables are disassembled and rebuilt by the same crew. Basement stairs are measured on the estimate so nothing is forced.
