Where We Deliver in Edinburgh
Understanding the property mix helps us plan the right crew size, van, and equipment for your move.
How Furniture Delivery Works in Edinburgh
If you need Furniture Storage Edinburgh, Giant Van provides reliable furniture removals across Edinburgh and the surrounding area. We handle a single armchair moved from Leith to Bruntsfield or a full living room suite delivered to a new flat in Morningside, we have the right vehicle and the right team for the job.

Edinburgh has a mix of property types that require different approaches. New-build flats in Fountainbridge and Granton have lifts and loading bays. Victorian tenements in Newington and Marchmont have narrow stairwells and stone steps. We assess access conditions before every job and bring the right equipment.
Every furniture delivery is fully insured. Your items are protected from collection to final placement. We use padded blankets, furniture straps, and non-scratch floor protection on every move. Our team will position pieces exactly where you want them in your new home.
Same-day furniture removals in Edinburgh are available when you book before midday. Our app shows you available slots in real time. You can book, manage, and track your delivery without making a single phone call. That said, our team is always on if you prefer to speak to someone directly.
Furniture Delivery in Edinburgh: Every Route Planned
When it comes to Furniture Removal Edinburgh to London, Edinburgh's street layout creates real challenges for furniture deliveries.
Understanding these in advance saves time and money on the day.
The Old Town around the Royal Mile (EH1) has some of the most difficult access in the city.
Closes, wynds, and narrow lanes mean our vans often cannot park directly outside a property. In these areas we use smaller vehicles or park on the nearest accessible street and carry items by hand.
Victoria Street and the Grassmarket frequently require this approach.
In the New Town (EH2 and EH3), residents' permit zones cover most streets from Monday to Saturday.
If you live on Drummond Place, India Street, or Heriot Row, you will need a temporary suspension permit from Edinburgh City Council. We can advise on this process when you book.
Leith Walk (EH6 and EH7) has a mix of double-yellow lines and loading bays.
The tram works on Leith Walk have changed traffic flow significantly. Our drivers know current road layouts and plan accordingly.
In Morningside and Bruntsfield (EH10), many tenements have basement flats with external stair access.
Items must be angled carefully through low doorways. We always carry a tape measure and measure large items before booking to confirm they will fit through your access points.
For deliveries to the Quartermile development or Western Harbour in Leith, we coordinate with building management in advance to reserve loading bays.
Contact us at least 48 hours ahead for these locations.
Parking fines are always our responsibility.
We do not pass these costs on to customers.
Furniture Delivery Prices in Edinburgh
Our Edinburgh furniture delivery prices are fixed and quoted upfront. You will always know the cost before the van leaves.
Furniture delivery starts from £48 for a single small item such as a bedside table or desk chair. A mid-size item like a sofa or double bed typically costs between £65 and £90 depending on access conditions and distance. A full furniture load for a room or large delivery runs between £90 and £120.
Man and van hire for larger furniture removals starts from £54 per hour and is capped at £300 for a full-day hire across Edinburgh.
Same-day furniture delivery in Edinburgh starts from £80. This covers same-day collection and delivery within the Edinburgh city boundary.
If you need furniture moved as part of a full house removal in Edinburgh, our house removal service starts from £250 for a one-bedroom property and rises to £850 for larger homes. This includes all furniture, boxes, and appliances.
Packing services start from £150 if you need help wrapping and preparing furniture for transport. Piano removal in Edinburgh is quoted separately and starts from £150 for an upright piano and £400 for a grand piano.
All prices include a two-person team, padded furniture blankets, floor protection, and full insurance. Stairs, fuel, and weekend bookings are priced into the quote you receive up front rather than added once the van is loaded. Get your fixed quote on the app or message us in the live chat.
All prices include a fully insured crew, van, and moving blankets. Packing services available as add-ons.
Work Out Your Moving CostWhat to Arrange for Furniture Delivery in Edinburgh
Doorways in Victorian tenements on Dalkeith Road and Causewayside are often narrower than modern flats. Measure door widths, stairwell turns, and ceiling heights on each landing. Send us the measurements and we will confirm if your item will fit before the van leaves.
Use the Edinburgh City Council parking zone checker at edinburgh.gov.uk to identify your zone. If you are in a permit zone, apply for a temporary suspension at least five working days before delivery.
Move rugs, coffee tables, and anything else from hallways and corridors the morning of your delivery. This reduces the risk of damage and speeds up the job significantly.
Flat-pack beds, wardrobe doors, and glass shelving should be removed before we arrive. This protects your items and makes tight stairwells in buildings like those on Grange Road far more manageable.
City centre deliveries before 9am avoid peak traffic on Princes Street, Lothian Road, and the A7 corridor through Newington. Our app lets you filter by time slot so you can pick the window that suits you best.

What Makes Us Edinburgh's Furniture Delivery Choice
Giant Van has built a strong reputation for furniture removals across Edinburgh. Here is what sets us apart from other delivery providers in the city.
Same-day service is available every day of the week. Most furniture delivery companies in Edinburgh require 48 to 72 hours notice. We offer confirmed same-day slots when you book before midday. This is particularly useful when furniture arrives from a retailer earlier than expected or when a property chain completes faster than planned.
Instant quotes with no hidden charges. Our app generates a fixed price before you commit. The price you see is the price you pay. Stairs, fuel, and weekend bookings get costed at quote stage, not guessed at on the day.
Full GPS tracking throughout your delivery. You know exactly where your furniture is at every point in the journey. You can share a live tracking link with anyone who needs to receive the delivery on your behalf. This is particularly useful for landlords receiving furniture deliveries at rental properties across Edinburgh.
Fully insured for your peace of mind. Our insurance covers every item from the moment we lift it to the moment it is placed in your room. You do not need to arrange separate cover.
App-based booking and management. Book, track, reschedule, or cancel from your phone. No phone queues. No hold music. No waiting for a callback. Though if you do want to talk to us, call and a real person answers.
Experienced teams familiar with Edinburgh's streets. Our drivers have worked in Edinburgh for years. They know where the permit zones are, where the double yellows end, and which tenement buildings have restricted stair access. That local knowledge saves time and avoids surprises on delivery day.

When Is the Best Time to Move?
UK moving demand follows seasonal patterns. Off-peak months typically offer lower prices and more crew availability.
How to Choose Your Edinburgh Furniture Delivery Date
Traffic on the A1 through Portobello, the A702 through Morningside, and Queensferry Road in the north is significantly lighter before the morning rush. Early slots also mean you have the afternoon free to arrange your home once the furniture is placed.
Princes Street, Lothian Road, and the A7 through Newington become heavily congested from around 3pm on Fridays. Deliveries booked for Friday mornings run far more smoothly.
Weekend deliveries are equally popular and run at the same rates. We do not apply weekend surcharges.
Road closures along the Royal Mile and around Bristo Square affect access significantly. If you are moving furniture in August, book as early in the morning as possible, ideally before 8am.
Slots are easier to secure at short notice and you may find same-day availability is higher. If you have flexibility on timing, winter months offer the most options.
We cover Edinburgh seven days a week, 52 weeks a year.
Furniture Delivery vs Full House Removals in Edinburgh
Here is a clear comparison to help you choose.
It is also ideal when you have bought furniture from a private seller on Gumtree or Facebook Marketplace and need it transported to your home.
This includes all furniture, boxes, appliances, and personal items. House removals in Edinburgh start from £250 for a one-bedroom flat and are priced by property size and distance. Our team handles packing, loading, transport, and placement at your new address.
