"Being near Lode Lane is essential for us. We sequence parts to JLR from a base off the M42 and the just-in-time timing has to be perfect. Solihull's road access makes that reliable every single shift."
Inventory accuracy for Solihull — no annual stocktake shutdown, live availability pushed to every channel, and slow movers surfaced before they become write-offs.
WSUK holds and counts stock for Solihull businesses to 99.5%+ accuracy — no annual stocktake shutdown, batch and expiry tracked, min/max reorder alerts and ageing reports. M42 (J4–J6), M40, A45 and A34 on the doorstep; we also cover Birmingham and Coventry.
Inventory accuracy is not a warehouse vanity metric. It is what decides whether you oversell, over-order, or discover a problem at year end.
A rolling programme that counts fast-moving lines often and everything periodically — instead of one disruptive annual stocktake that tells you about last year.
When a count disagrees with the system we find out why — mis-pick, mis-receipt, damage, theft — because the reason is worth more than the adjustment.
Min/max levels set with you and alerted against, plus SKU, batch and expiry reporting so slow movers and short-dated stock surface early.
Inventory management is included on managed fulfilment accounts and priced separately where we hold stock only. Short-term rate card for monthly rolling; long-term contract rates tier down with pallet volume.
Pay-per-use published rates with no commitment.
Locked-in rates on multi-year SLAs.
Located storage with perpetual cycle counting.
A complete wall-to-wall count where you need one.
Live stock pushed to your systems and channels.
Indicative ranges based on standard requirements. Bespoke / hazardous / temperature-controlled goods are quoted separately. Get an exact quote for your volumes →
Solihull occupies a well-heeled slice of the West Midlands across the B90-B93 postcodes, and its logistics story is inseparable from three landmark neighbours: Jaguar Land Rover's Lode Lane plant, the NEC and Birmingham Airport, all strung along the M42. That motorway, running J4-J6 through the borough, is the spine, joined by the M40, the A45 and the A34. The result is a place where advanced automotive manufacturing, aerospace and business services generate a steady, high-value flow of freight rather than sheer pallet volume alone.
The estates reflect that premium character. Blythe Valley Park is a polished business-park setting off the M42, Birmingham Business Park sits close to the airport and NEC, Cranmore serves established industrial tenants, and JLR's Lode Lane operation anchors a whole automotive supply ecosystem around it. Just-in-time delivery is the watchword here - components arriving to a schedule, not a warehouse - so storage and logistics around Solihull often serve as buffer and sequencing space for demanding manufacturing lines rather than long-term bulk holding.
Solihull lies roughly thirty minutes from the DIRFT and Rugby core, connected through the M42 and M40 toward the heart of the Golden Triangle. That positions it on the triangle's western, Birmingham-facing side, where motorway-box access to the M6, M5, M42 and M40 opens up. For businesses needing to serve JLR, feed the NEC's events calendar or move air-freight through Birmingham Airport, a storage footprint near Solihull combines proximity to those anchors with fast onward reach across the wider Midlands.
The value of accurate stock around Solihull is mostly invisible until it fails: a cancelled marketplace order, emergency freight on a line that ran out, or a write-off at year end nobody budgeted for. Perpetual counting prevents all three far more cheaply than discovering them does.

Local answers for Solihull, plus the questions every inventory management client asks.
Its M42 access (J4-J6) plus the M40, A45 and A34, sitting beside JLR's Lode Lane plant, the NEC and Birmingham Airport. That combination suits automotive supply, event logistics and air-freight-linked storage across the B90-B93 area.
Very much so. With JLR's Lode Lane plant on the doorstep, storage near Solihull frequently acts as buffer and sequencing space, feeding components to production lines on schedule via the M42 rather than holding long-term bulk.
Blythe Valley Park offers premium space off the M42, Birmingham Business Park sits near the airport and NEC, and Cranmore serves established industrial tenants. The right choice depends on whether you prioritise prestige, airport access or straightforward industrial units.
Both are right beside the M42 within the borough, minutes from the main estates. Storage near Solihull is ideal for event stock feeding the NEC or time-sensitive goods moving through Birmingham Airport's cargo operations.
Around thirty minutes via the M42 and M40. That places Solihull on the western, Birmingham-facing edge of the Golden Triangle, with quick onward access into the M6/M5/M42/M40 motorway box.
