Cannock, West Midlands • England
Cannock sits on the Staffordshire plain in the WS postcode area, England, roughly midway between Birmingham and Stafford and just off the A34. KrewBase sources whole serviced houses and flats here for working crews: bills, Wi-Fi and parking all in, one monthly invoice to your company, and no booking fees. Two people for a fortnight is as welcome as twenty for six months - every crew gets a proper house near site, not a block of hotel rooms.
Cannock's housing is mostly practical post-war stock: brick semis and terraces around the town centre, larger estates towards Heath Hayes and the Hednesford side, and newer developments on the edges. Drives, garages and gardens are common, which is exactly what a crew with vehicles needs. We check every property for parking that fits the actual vans, heating and hot water that cope with early shifts, and kitchens that can feed several people properly - then we walk it before it reaches your shortlist.
The check is not a box-tick. If a drive cannot take your vehicles, or the boiler is one winter from giving up, the house is off the list before you ever hear about it. That is the point of a shortlist: everything on it should work. We also test broadband properly, because evening admin over a weak connection is a problem we can solve before check-in rather than after.
Cannock sits where the M6, the M6 Toll and the A34 meet, so crews based here work across a wide patch: logistics and warehousing along the motorway corridors, manufacturing around the town's estates, construction and housing development, and the utility and infrastructure jobs that run up and down the region. It is a strong base when the contract is really the West Midlands rather than one postcode - a house here puts crews within reach of most of it.
The A34 runs north to Stafford, about twelve miles, and south into the conurbation - Walsall is eight miles and Birmingham around twenty. The M6 and M6 Toll are close by, and Cannock station sits on the Chase line into Birmingham for crew members who prefer rail. We shortlist by real drive time from the site, so whether the job is in Cannock itself, Rugeley or over towards the airport, nobody is commuting further than the work needs.
The whole house is yours for the duration: council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband in our name, Wi-Fi speed-tested before check-in, parking confirmed for your vehicles, two bathrooms for five or more people, and a weekly clean with fresh linen. Anything that breaks is our job - the crew messages us and we arrange the fix. The house is checked again before handover so the crew walks into a working home, not a snag list.
Your company gets one monthly invoice, paid by card. There are no booking fees, no per-head deposits, and no minimum stay - you book what the job actually needs, for as long as it actually runs. Extensions keep the same terms, and your accounts team sees one clean line a month rather than a stack of hotel receipts to reconcile.
Send us the requirement — town, dates, headcount, vehicles and any shift pattern we should know about. We come back within 2 hours with a shortlist from property we already hold, not a search we have just started. You pick, we confirm, the crew moves in, and we stay on it for the length of the job. One monthly invoice, card payment for limited companies, no booking fees.
Normally inside two hours. Send the site postcode, crew numbers, dates and vehicle count, and we shortlist whole houses across Cannock and the surrounding towns with drive times and parking details. You approve, we book, and the crew checks in with everything already running.
The whole district - Cannock, Hednesford, Heath Hayes, Norton Canes, Rugeley and the villages around the Chase are all normal coverage. Sites further out towards Stafford or Lichfield are fine too; the site postcode sets where we look, not an arbitrary map line.
Off the street, wherever possible. Tell us how many vehicles you run and their sizes, and we only shortlist houses with drives, garages or bays that fit them. Parking is checked against your actual fleet before we ever send a property to you, so there are no surprises on arrival.
Yes - that is the standard arrangement. One monthly invoice covers rent and all bills, paid by card, paid by BACS. No booking fees, no card payments from crew, and a single clean line in your accounts instead of a stack of hotel receipts.
Genuinely. Council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband are in our name and in the rate, and the Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in. Your crew arrives, drops their bags, and everything already works - nobody is chasing a meter reading or a router password.
For anything beyond a couple of weeks, a house wins on cost, and it is better to live in: parking at the door, a kitchen, laundry, and no disturbing other guests when shifts start at 5am. Hotels suit a one-night stop; houses suit the job.

If Cannock is short on the right house for your crew, Birmingham is the obvious back-up, roughly 16 miles away. See our contractor accommodation Birmingham page for what we hold there. Small crews are as welcome as big ones.
