What Giant Van Does in Easter Road
Before you move to Edinburgh, it helps to understand the city. These Edinburgh facts give you a solid grounding in what to expect.
Edinburgh is Scotland's capital city and home to around 540,000 people. It sits on the south shore of the Firth of Forth and covers roughly 264 square kilometres. The Old Town and New Town together form a UNESCO World Heritage Site, one of only a handful of urban areas in the UK with that distinction.
The city has two distinct characters. The medieval Old Town clusters around the Royal Mile, which runs from Edinburgh Castle down to the Palace of Holyroodhouse. The Georgian New Town, built from the 1760s onwards, offers wide streets and classical architecture.
Easter Road falls between these zones, in the Leith Walk corridor that connects the city centre to the port of Leith.
Edinburgh hosts the world's largest arts festival. The Edinburgh Festival Fringe takes place every August and brings more than 3,000 shows to venues across the city. During August, the population of Edinburgh effectively doubles. If you are moving during that month, book your removal van well in advance.
The city sits at sea level along the coast but rises steeply inland. Arthur's Seat, an ancient volcano, rises to 251 metres right inside the city boundary. From Easter Road, you can see Arthur's Seat on clear days. It takes about 45 minutes to walk to the summit from the neighbourhood.
Edinburgh has five universities and more than 70,000 students. That means a high volume of flat moves every September and June. Demand for removal vans peaks sharply at those times. Giant Van offers same-day slots and instant quotes to help you move on your schedule, not someone else's.
Easter Road Access and Parking Know-How
Easter Road is the main artery of this part of Edinburgh's north-east.
It runs through the EH7 and EH6 postcodes, connecting Leith Walk at the south end to the junction with Lochend Road at the north. The street itself is lined with tenement flats, local shops, and cafes.
It has a working-class character that has gradually attracted younger residents and creative businesses over the past decade.
Hibernian Football Club's Easter Road Stadium sits right on the street and is the area's most visible landmark.
The stadium opened in 1893 and holds around 20,000 spectators. On match days, the surrounding streets fill quickly. If you are booking a removal, avoid Saturdays when Hibs are playing at home.
The postcodes that cover this area include EH7 4, EH7 5, and the upper end of EH6 8.
Key streets include Iona Street, Albion Road, Lochend Road, Meadowbank Terrace, and Restalrig Road. Tenement flats are common here, which means tight stairwells and limited parking. Our team brings the right equipment and experience for tenement moves.
Parking on Easter Road can be difficult, particularly along the main road.
A number of streets nearby have residents' permit zones. Giant Van drivers plan routes and arrival times carefully to minimise disruption and keep your move on schedule.
The area is well connected.
Buses run along Easter Road frequently, and the city centre is a 15-minute walk or a five-minute bus ride. Easter Road is roughly two miles from Edinburgh Waverley station. For furniture delivery in Easter Road, Edinburgh, we work around narrow closes and stairwells that older properties often feature.

Easter Road: Crew, Van, and Protection Included
Moving furniture in Easter Road is not always straightforward.
The tenement buildings that line most of the residential streets were built in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
Stairwells are narrow, landings are tight, and there is rarely a lift.
Getting a three-seat sofa to a second-floor flat requires planning, strength, and the right technique.
Giant Van specialises in exactly this kind of furniture delivery in Easter Road, Edinburgh.
Our team assesses access before they start.
If a sofa will not go up the stairs in one piece, we know how to disassemble and reassemble it safely.
We carry straps, furniture blankets, and protective boards to every job.
We deliver from all major retailers.
If you have ordered from IKEA, John Lewis, or any online furniture store and they do not offer home assembly, we do.
We collect from their depot or from your supplier and deliver directly to your room.
Delivery timing matters here.
Easter Road can be congested during morning and evening rush hours, and on Hibs match days it becomes very busy near the stadium.
We schedule deliveries to avoid peak times wherever possible.
GPS tracking means you know exactly where your delivery team is at all times.
We also handle piano moves, which require specialist equipment and experience.
Edinburgh has many tenement flats with pianos that were installed before the building was completed and cannot be moved through the stairwell at all.
If you are facing a complex delivery situation, message us on live chat first.
We will give you an honest assessment before you commit.

The Booking Journey for Easter Road Moves
- 01
Edinburgh is a compact city, but moving between neighbourhoods still requires planning.
Easter Road is well placed relative to most parts of the city, but access and parking differ enormously depending on where you are coming from.
- 02
Moving from Leith is the shortest local move.
The distance from Leith Walk to Easter Road is under a mile. Even for a small flat, this can take two to three hours including loading, travel, and unloading. Our Man and Van service from £54 per hour is ideal for this kind of short move.
- 03
Moves from the New Town or Old Town involve crossing the city centre, which adds time.
Morningside, Marchmont, or Bruntsfield are on the south side and require navigating through the centre or around the bypass. Allow extra time in your quote for these routes.
- 04
Moves from Corstorphine, Murrayfield, or the west side of Edinburgh are longer journeys but straightforward on the A8 or via the city bypass.
Easter Road is easily accessible from the A1 and the junction at Meadowbank, which makes inbound deliveries efficient.
- 05
Student moves from Pollock Halls or university accommodation in the Southside are common.
These typically happen in late June and early September. If you are moving student belongings to Easter Road, book early. We fill up quickly around those dates.
- 06
Long-distance moves from other Scottish cities or from England are also something we handle.
Glasgow to Edinburgh takes around an hour on the M8. We do same-day return trips for intercity removals and keep pricing clear from the outset.

From Easter Road to Neighbouring Areas
Edinburgh has no shortage of removal companies.
What separates Giant Van from the rest comes down to a few specific things that matter on moving day.
Instant quotes mean no waiting.

GPS tracking is live and accurate.

Same-day availability is genuine.
We do not list same-day as a feature and then have no slots. We keep capacity reserved specifically for last-minute bookings in Edinburgh. If something urgent comes up, call and we will tell you honestly what we can do.
Full insurance covers every job.
All loads are insured in transit. If something gets damaged, we deal with it. Our team uses furniture blankets, straps, and load bars on every move. Fragile items are wrapped and secured properly.
Our drivers know Edinburgh.
They know which streets have parking restrictions, where the access points for tenements are, and how to get a large van close to a close entrance without blocking the road. Local knowledge makes a real difference on a busy Edinburgh street like Easter Road.
A Note From Our Easter Road Team
We know Easter Road 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 Easter Road depends on it.

What Makes Us Easter Road's Go-To Movers
One of the most useful Edinburgh facts for anyone moving to the EH7 area is understanding how the neighbourhood developed. Easter Road was built up primarily between 1860 and 1910, as Edinburgh expanded rapidly beyond its medieval core.
The tenements were constructed to house workers who moved to the city during industrialisation, many of them working at the port of Leith or in the printing and brewing industries that dominated Edinburgh's economy at the time.
The area's working-class roots are still visible in the architecture. Four-storey sandstone tenements line most of the residential streets. Many have been divided into one and two-bedroom flats, which is why furniture delivery and flat moves are so common here.
Meadowbank, just to the south of Easter Road, was home to Edinburgh's athletics stadium until it was demolished in 2017. The site is being redeveloped as a new leisure centre and housing development, which has already brought new residents to the area.
Lochend Park, a short walk from the main road, offers a green space with a small loch at its centre. It is popular with dog walkers and families and gives the neighbourhood a breathing space that is typical of Edinburgh's inner suburbs.
The EH7 postcode also covers Abbeyhill, which sits at the base of Arthur's Seat and borders the Scottish Parliament at Holyrood. Property prices in EH7 have risen steadily over the past ten years, making it a popular choice for first-time buyers and renters looking for value within walking distance of the city centre.
That growth has kept removal companies busy throughout the area.

Giant Van vs Other Removal Options in Easter Road
Here is how Giant Van compares to the alternatives.
It fails the moment you need to move a sofa up a tenement stairwell. You also have no insurance if something gets damaged. Giant Van provides professional handling and full transit insurance on every job.
Same-day bookings are rarely available. You are also unlikely to get a driver who knows the difference between Lochend Road and Leith Walk, or who understands that parking on a match day near Easter Road Stadium is a bad idea.
If something goes wrong, you are liable. For most people moving a flat in EH7, the stress of self-drive outweighs the saving.
We are not the cheapest option if you compare headline rates to uninsured alternatives. We are the best value when you account for reliability, experience, and what happens when things do not go to plan.
Easter Road is one of Edinburgh's most active areas for flat moves and furniture deliveries.
Tenement properties, short-term lets, and a steady flow of students and young professionals mean there is constant demand for reliable removal services.
Giant Van covers every street in EH7 and EH6.
We offer same-day slots, GPS-tracked vans, full insurance, and instant quotes.
Our team knows the area and handles tenement stairwells, narrow closes, and permit parking zones without fuss.
For moves big and small, we are the straightforward choice.
