A homeless charity has stopped making deliveries because it says it cannot afford Clean Air Zone charges.
The founder of Homeless Birmingham, Ken Lowry, said other charities were facing a similar decision.
The city council said there is a range of allowances and exemptions to help people living and working in the zone, which comes in to force on 1 June.
But Mr Lowry said his charity was being charged to provide a service the council should provide.
