Where We Deliver in Granton
Understanding the property mix helps us plan the right crew size, van, and equipment for your move.
Giant Van Services Across Granton
Granton sits in the EH5 postcode district along Edinburgh's Firth of Forth waterfront. The area stretches from Granton Road in the south down to Granton Harbour and the regeneration zone at West Shore Road.
New residential blocks have appeared along Waterfront Broadway and Waterfront Avenue over recent years, and the pace of new lettings here is unlike most other Edinburgh postcodes.
Delivering furniture into these newer buildings requires planning. Many blocks on Waterfront Broadway and Waterfront Avenue have narrow lift lobbies and restricted parking bays on the street frontage. Our drivers carry trolleys, moving blankets, and furniture straps as standard. We assess access before we arrive, so your sofa or wardrobe does not end up stuck in a stairwell.
Older tenement flats along Granton Road and Lower Granton Road present a different challenge. Stone stairwells are tight. Turning space on landings is minimal. We have handled furniture delivery into EH5 1 and EH5 3 tenements many times and know exactly how to angle a double wardrobe around a tight corner without scratching the walls or the piece itself.
Key streets and zones we cover regularly in Granton:
Waterfront Broadway, EH5 1
Waterfront Avenue, EH5 1
Granton Road, EH5 1 and EH5 3
Lower Granton Road, EH5 1
West Shore Road, EH5 1
Granton Square, EH5 1
Boswall Road, EH5 2
If you are moving a single item or a full flat's worth of furniture, Giant Van handles Granton's access conditions every day.
Navigating Granton Roads on Moving Day
The volume of free furniture Edinburgh residents give away is significant.
Facebook Marketplace, Gumtree, and Freecycle boards show dozens of listings across Edinburgh at any given time. Sofas, bed frames, chest of drawers, dining tables, and wardrobes appear and disappear within hours. The catch is always the same: you have to collect.
That is where Giant Van steps in.
We collect marketplace Edinburgh furniture from any Edinburgh postcode and deliver it straight to your Granton address. You win the listing, we handle the physical work. No need to borrow a friend's estate car, hire a transit, or ask a favour you will spend months repaying.
Our service works for paid listings too.
If you are buying from a seller in Morningside, collecting a dining set from Leith, or picking up a sofa from a flat in Gorgie, we handle the full journey. Our two-person teams carry and load items safely. Fragile pieces are wrapped before they leave the collection point.
We operate seven days a week across Edinburgh.
Same-day slots are available when vans are nearby. The Giant Van app shows you real-time driver locations so you know exactly when to expect arrival at both the pickup address and your Granton home.
Pricing for single-item marketplace collections from elsewhere in Edinburgh starts from the Man and Van rate of £54 per hour.
Most in-city pickups and deliveries to Granton complete in under two hours. Get an instant, no-obligation quote before you commit.

Work Out Your Moving CostPrep Pointers for Granton Removals
Some customers need a single armchair moved from one flat to another. Others are clearing a whole property and need every piece of furniture transported to a new address the same day. Giant Van prices by property size for full flat moves, which makes budgeting straightforward:
You are not paying extra for blankets, straps, or trolleys. The quote you receive is the price you pay. Granton is well connected by road. Granton Road leads directly south to the city centre.
Our drivers know the area well, including the one-way sections near Granton Square and the restricted zones around the new waterfront development at Granton Harbour. Parking can be tight on Boswall Road during school pickup times, and we factor that into our scheduling.
This means your quote is accurate from the start and no time is wasted reassessing on the day. There is no surprise on the day: stairs are built into the quote before your move.

Full Transparency for Granton Bookings
Not every job needs a full removal.
Sometimes you need one strong pair of hands, a van, and an hour of time.
Our Man and Van service in Granton starts from £54 per hour and suits single items, student moves, and quick flat swaps perfectly.
Granton has a high proportion of rented flats, particularly in the newer developments along the waterfront.
Tenants move more frequently than homeowners, and most do not own enough furniture to justify hiring a full removal firm.
Man and Van is the right level of service for a two-seater sofa, a bookcase, or a set of flat-pack furniture you want assembling at the new address.
We cover all EH5 postcodes including EH5 1, EH5 2, and EH5 3.
Our vans are tracked via GPS and you receive a live link when your driver is on the way.
Every charge, including access, distance and clean-air zones, is shown in your quote before you pay.
What the app quotes is what you pay.
Granton's position near the city's waterfront means some addresses along West Shore Road and Granton Harbour face tidal winds and can have exposed loading areas.
Our drivers are experienced with outdoor loading in Scottish weather and carry protective covers for upholstered items.
Same-day Man and Van slots are often available in EH5, particularly mid-week.
Weekend slots fill faster given the volume of marketplace Edinburgh furniture collections we run across the city on Saturdays and Sundays.
Book early for weekend moves to secure your preferred time.
Call or use the app to check today's availability.

Your Path to a Granton Move
- 01
Granton is one of Edinburgh's most varied neighbourhoods from a logistics perspective.
Within a few streets, you move from Victorian tenements to waterfront new-builds and former industrial conversion units. Each type of property presents its own access conditions and delivery challenges.
- 02
The tenement flats on Granton Road and Lower Granton Road have stone stairs with tight half-landings.
Standard stairwell width on many EH5 1 and EH5 3 tenements is narrower than the newer builds elsewhere in Edinburgh. Wardrobes and double-door fridges sometimes need to be partially disassembled to make it through. Our teams carry screwdrivers and Allen keys for this purpose.
- 03
The newer flats on Waterfront Broadway and Waterfront Avenue have lifts, but these are often compact.
We always check lift internal dimensions before booking large items. Items taller than 2 metres may need to go via the stairwell regardless of whether a lift is present.
- 04
Parking on West Shore Road near the harbour zone is limited.
Double yellow lines run along much of the waterfront-facing stretch. Our drivers use hazard lights and loading bay concessions where available, and we keep delivery windows short to minimise any disruption.
- 05
Boswall Road has residential parking restrictions in sections.
Early morning delivery slots often work better here than lunchtime arrivals when permit holder spaces fill up.
- 06
Tell us your exact postcode and floor number when you book.
We plan the delivery around the real conditions at your address, not a generic Edinburgh profile. That preparation is what prevents delays and damage on the day.

A Better Standard for Granton Removals
Serving Edinburgh, granton has changed enormously over the past decade. The regeneration of the waterfront has brought thousands of new residents into EH5. Many arrived with fewer belongings than they expected to need and have since built up their homes piece by piece through marketplace furniture finds, second-hand shops, and online listings.
Giant Van has been part of that process for hundreds of Granton households. We know the area's streets, we know which buildings have tricky access, and we know how to move furniture quickly and cleanly in a postcode where parking is not always easy.
Here is why customers in EH5 book with us repeatedly:
Instant quotes through the app. You know the price before you confirm. No phone call required unless you want one.
GPS-tracked drivers. You can see your driver's location in real time. No waiting around wondering where the van is.
Two-person teams on most jobs. One person is not enough for a heavy sofa or a tall wardrobe on a tenement stair. We send two as standard for anything beyond a single light item.
Fully insured loads. Every item we carry is covered in transit. You do not need to arrange separate cover.
Same-day availability. If you need a piece collected and delivered today, we will tell you honestly whether that is possible. We do not overbook and underdeliver.
Local knowledge. Our drivers know Granton's one-way streets, restricted parking zones, and which buildings have service entrances worth using. That knowledge saves time on every job.

Can you collect free furniture Edinburgh listings and deliver to Granton?

You claim the free furniture Edinburgh listing and we handle the collection and delivery. The Man and Van rate applies from £54 per hour.

Most same-day bookings are confirmed within minutes. Weekday same-day slots are generally easier to secure than weekend slots, which fill quickly due to high demand for marketplace Edinburgh furniture collections across the city.
Can your vans access the new flats on Waterfront Broadway?
Yes. We deliver regularly to flats on Waterfront Broadway and Waterfront Avenue in EH5 1. These buildings have lifts, though the internal dimensions can be tight for larger items. Our drivers assess access before they arrive and carry the right equipment for stairwell delivery when a lift cannot accommodate a piece.
Tell us your floor number when you book and we plan accordingly.
Is furniture delivery in Granton insured?
Every job Giant Van carries out is covered by goods in transit insurance as standard. You do not need to arrange separate cover or pay extra for it.

Call if you want details on coverage levels before booking.
How do I get a quote for furniture delivery in Granton?
The fastest way is the Giant Van app. Enter your pickup address, your Granton delivery address, and details about your items. You receive an instant price before you confirm anything. Alternatively, call and speak to the team directly. For marketplace furniture collections, uploading photos of the item through the app helps us give you a more accurate quote upfront.
Do you deliver to tenement flats on Granton Road?
Yes. Tenement flats on Granton Road and Lower Granton Road are a regular part of our Granton work. Stone stairwells are tight and some half-landings are narrow, but our two-person teams are experienced with EH5 tenements. We carry straps, trolleys, and basic tools for partial disassembly when needed.
Give us your floor number and we assess the stairwell before arriving with your furniture.
