Your Gorgie Quote Breakdown
The furniture removal Edinburgh to London cost is not a flat national rate.
Giant Van calculates your quote based on the cubic footage of your load, the number of crew members required, floor access at both collection and delivery addresses, and the specific London postcode.
Central London postcodes such as EC1 or WC2 involve congestion charge zones and restricted delivery hours, which add a modest, clearly itemised amount.
Gorgie collections involving a tenement stair with no lift add a small access supplement.
We show every line item before you confirm, so the figure you see is the figure you pay.

Furniture Delivery Gorgie Edinburgh — FAQs
How much does furniture removal from Edinburgh to London cost?
The furniture removal Edinburgh to London cost depends on load volume, floor access, and London postcode. A one-bedroom flat load from Gorgie typically falls in a clear price band confirmed before booking. Two-bedroom loads and larger volumes are priced per cubic foot.
Giant Van provides a fixed quote with all charges itemised, including any congestion zone or access supplements, so there are no surprises on collection day.
Do you offer weekend man and van slots in Edinburgh?
Yes. Giant Van offers a weekend man and van Edinburgh service with Saturday and Sunday slots available from 07:30. Weekend bookings include a two-person crew and full furniture protection as standard. Weekend slots for the London run are popular and book out several days in advance, so we recommend securing your preferred date as early as possible to avoid disappointment.
Can you collect from a tenement flat on Gorgie Road?
Absolutely. Our crew are experienced with Edinburgh tenement buildings, including tight common stairs, no-lift access, and restricted street parking on Gorgie Road and surrounding streets. We factor stair access into your quote rather than adding charges on the day. Our Luton vans with tail-lifts make ground-level loading efficient even when street space is limited.
How far in advance do I need to book furniture delivery in Gorgie?
For furniture delivery in Gorgie, Edinburgh, we recommend booking at least five to seven days in advance for standard weekday slots and seven to ten days ahead for weekend bookings. The Edinburgh to London run is one of our busiest routes, particularly on Fridays and Saturdays.
Same-week bookings can sometimes be accommodated depending on vehicle availability, so it is worth calling directly if your move is urgent.
Is my furniture insured during transit from Gorgie to London?
Yes. All items carried by Giant Van are covered by goods-in-transit insurance up to the values stated in your booking confirmation. Antique or high-value items should be declared at the time of booking so we can apply appropriate wrapping and note them specifically on the inventory. Standard household furniture is covered as part of every booking at no additional cost.
Do you charge extra for the London congestion zone?
Deliveries into central London postcodes within the congestion charge zone carry a clearly itemised supplement shown on your quote before you confirm. It is never added as a surprise on delivery day. Deliveries to outer London boroughs such as Walthamstow, Lewisham, or Croydon typically fall outside the zone and carry no additional charge beyond the standard London delivery rate.
Can Giant Van dismantle and reassemble furniture?
Yes, dismantling and reassembly is available as an add-on for flat-pack furniture such as IKEA wardrobes, bed frames, and shelving units. This service is booked in advance and added to your fixed-price invoice. The crew brings standard tools to handle most flat-pack assembly.
For bespoke or antique furniture requiring specialist joinery, we recommend using a dedicated furniture restorer at the destination.
What areas of Edinburgh do you cover for furniture collection?
Giant Van covers all Edinburgh postcodes for furniture collection, including the full EH11 area covering Gorgie, Dalry, Saughton, and Stenhouse. We also serve Leith, Morningside, Corstorphine, Bruntsfield, and all surrounding suburbs. For collections outside central Edinburgh, such as South Queensferry or Musselburgh, a small travel supplement may apply and will be shown clearly on your quote.
