What Edinburgh Can Expect From Packing Services
Portobello business premises often combine older buildings with tight access roads — a combination that catches out removal teams without local experience.
Giant Van's drivers know the area and come prepared with the right van size and equipment from the start.
We handle office furniture, filing cabinets, monitors, and server equipment with separate padded compartments and anti-static wrapping where needed.
Most Portobello office removals Edinburgh clients book Saturday or Sunday slots to avoid weekday traffic on the A1 corridor.
Evening availability is also possible for time-sensitive handovers.
Quotes are fixed-price with no fuel surcharges added on the day.
Access Solutions for Packing Services in Edinburgh
South Gyle's business park layout means multiple tenants share loading bays and lifts — timing matters.
Giant Van coordinates directly with building managers to book bay access and avoid clashes with other companies on moving day.
Office removals south gyle Edinburgh typically involve open-plan desk banks, IT racks, and branded reception furniture.
Our teams label every box by department, wrap monitors individually, and reassemble desks at the new location so staff can get back to work the same afternoon.
For larger floor plates, a second crew is already included in the quote when you book five or more working days ahead, so there's nothing extra to add later.

What Your Edinburgh Packing Services Includes
A removals company Edinburgh residents trust for packing needs to bring more than boxes.
Giant Van's packing service covers double-walled removal boxes, wardrobe transit cartons with hanging rails, dish-pack cells for crockery, mirror and artwork packages, and mattress bags — supplied and packed by the crew before loading begins.
Professional packing reduces transit damage significantly.
Properly packed boxes stack cleanly inside the van, reducing movement.
Fragile items wrapped in tissue and bubble wrap inside double-walled boxes survive Edinburgh's cobbled streets and the stop-start of city-centre traffic.
The packing service is available as a full-day addition to any Edinburgh removal booking or as a standalone packing-only visit the day before moving day.
Pricing is based on property size: a two-bedroom flat packing service typically adds £150–£250 to the removal cost.

Popular Removal Routes From Edinburgh
Packing Services Across Greater Edinburgh
New Town Edinburgh presents specific access challenges that a removals company Edinburgh needs to plan around.
Georgian tenements on streets like Dundas Street and Great King Street have no passenger lifts.
Stone staircases are narrow, with tight right-angle turns at each landing.
Parking on double yellow lines requires a suspension permit — Giant Van applies for this in advance for New Town moves, avoiding the day-of scramble that catches unprepared removal firms.
The crew arrives with a risk assessment for stair carries, assigns the right number of people per heavy item, and uses stair-slide equipment for awkward large pieces.
External elevator hoisting through windows is available for grand pianos and extra-large furniture on request.
All New Town removals are insured at the same standard as any other Edinburgh job.
A Note From Our Edinburgh Team
We know Edinburgh well. Our drivers navigate the local streets daily, handling everything from narrow terraced house access to large detached properties. Every move is treated with care because our reputation in Edinburgh depends on it.

Moving Guides and Advice
Removals Company Edinburgh — FAQs
Do you handle office removals in New Town Edinburgh?
Yes. Office removals New Town Edinburgh are a regular booking for Giant Van, covering Georgian townhouses converted to offices as well as modern commercial suites. New Town streets often have restricted parking, so our team applies for suspension permits in advance where needed. Fixed prices from £149 for small office moves, with full IT equipment handling included.
Can you manage office removals in Leith Edinburgh?
Office removals Leith Edinburgh are straightforward for our crews — the docks area and the Shore have good van access and most commercial units have ground-floor loading. We typically complete Leith office moves in a single day for spaces up to 2,000 sq ft. Evening and weekend slots are available. Message us in the live chat for a same-day quote.
How far in advance should I book a removals company Edinburgh?
Book a removals company Edinburgh at least five to seven days ahead for weekday moves. Friday and Saturday slots in Edinburgh fill two to three weeks in advance, particularly between June and September when the student market and property completions peak simultaneously. Same-day availability exists for urgent jobs — message us in the live chat before 9am.
For moves coinciding with the Edinburgh Festival in August, book six to eight weeks ahead.
Does Giant Van cover all Edinburgh postcodes?
Yes. Giant Van covers all Edinburgh postcodes including EH1 through EH17 for the city, and outer postcodes including EH28, EH29, and EH30 for the western and northern fringe. Midlothian and East Lothian postcodes including EH22, EH33, and EH40 are also covered. Message us in the live chat to confirm availability at your specific Edinburgh postcode.
Can you handle piano removals in Edinburgh?
Yes. Upright piano removals in Edinburgh are a regular booking for Giant Van. Edinburgh's tenement staircases present challenges — narrow widths and tight turns — so piano moves are assessed at the quote stage to confirm the route is manageable. Grand pianos require specialist hoisting equipment and are quoted separately.
Message us in the live chat to discuss your piano removal in Edinburgh.
Do you provide packing boxes for Edinburgh removals?
Yes. Giant Van supplies double-walled removal boxes, wardrobe cartons, dish-pack cells, and specialist boxes for mirrors and artwork as part of the packing service. Boxes and packing materials can also be delivered to your Edinburgh property ahead of moving day if you prefer to pack yourself. Ask for box supply details when calling to book.
