Leith Walk is a long arterial road in the east of Edinburgh, stretching from the top of Leith near the port up to the junction with Picardy Place in the city centre. The postcode areas EH6 and EH7 cover most of the street and surrounding neighbourhood.
It's a mixed residential and commercial area with a distinctive character — dense Victorian tenement housing, a busy tram and bus corridor, and a thriving independent business scene.
Furniture delivery here means dealing with double yellow lines on the main road, resident permit zones on side streets, and the access constraints typical of Edinburgh's older building stock.
Giant Van's local knowledge means we navigate all of this without delays.
We have regular customers throughout Leith Walk, including residents in the Pilrig, Bonnington, and Hillside neighbourhoods, as well as landlords managing HMO properties and furnished lets across the EH6 and EH7 postcodes.

Where We Deliver in Leith Walk
Understanding the property mix helps us plan the right crew size, van, and equipment for your move.
Leith Walk Moving Services We Offer
Leith Walk is one of Edinburgh's busiest and most densely populated corridors, running from the city centre down to Leith.
Properties here range from Victorian tenements to modern flats, many with narrow closes and steep stairs.
Giant Van's drivers know this area well and plan each job accordingly.
If you're taking delivery of a new dining set, relocating a wardrobe, or clearing a flat after a lease ends, we bring the right van size and the right crew.
Our Edinburgh furniture removals service covers the full EH6 and EH7 postcode areas with same-week availability on most jobs.
Why Leith Walk Layout Matters for Your Move
We handle all types of household and commercial furniture across Leith Walk.
Sofas, beds, wardrobes, chest of drawers, dining tables, bookshelves, office desks — if it's furniture, we'll move it.
Items are padded and wrapped before loading to prevent scratches and dents during transit.
We also offer flat-pack assembly after delivery if you'd rather not wrestle with allen keys.
For oversized or antique pieces, our team uses specialist lifting equipment to keep both the furniture and the property in perfect condition throughout the Edinburgh furniture removals process.
Furniture Delivery Pricing in Leith Walk
Pricing for furniture delivery in Leith Walk depends on three factors: the number and size of items, the access at collection and delivery addresses, and the date and time of the job. A single item delivery within Edinburgh — such as a sofa or a bed frame — typically starts from around £60 to £90 for a two-person crew.
Multi-item moves or full flat clearances are priced per job based on volume and time required. Edinburgh furniture recycling disposal is costed separately based on item count and type. All quotes are fixed price with no hidden charges. There are no fuel surcharges, no weekend premiums, and no additional fees for staircase access within the Edinburgh area.
Use the online quote tool for an instant price, or start a live chat to discuss a bespoke rate for regular or commercial bookings.
All prices include a fully insured crew, van, and moving blankets. Packing services available as add-ons.

Leith Walk Coverage: Nearby Towns Included
Edinburgh tenements present unique challenges for furniture delivery.
Narrow stone staircases, low-ceiling landings, and shared communal areas mean that not all removal companies are equipped to handle the job safely.
Giant Van specialises in exactly this kind of delivery.
Our crew uses stair-climbing sack trucks, furniture sliders, and shoulder harnesses to manoeuvre large items through tight spaces without damaging walls, banisters, or doorframes.
We carry protective stair coverings on every van.
If your property on or near Leith Walk requires a specialist approach, we'll scope the job beforehand and give you an honest, accurate quote.

This diversity means furniture delivery here requires local knowledge and adaptable crews.

Moving Guides and Advice
Edinburgh Furniture Removals & Delivery in Leith Walk — FAQs
Do you offer furniture delivery in Leith Walk specifically?
Yes, Leith Walk is one of our most regularly served locations in Edinburgh. We cover all streets in the area including Easter Road, Pilrig Street, Iona Street, and the surrounding roads. Our drivers know the area's parking restrictions and building types, which means we can plan each delivery efficiently. Book online or call for same-week availability.
Can you deliver furniture to a tenement flat with a narrow staircase?
Absolutely. Tenement deliveries are a core part of our Edinburgh furniture removals service. We use specialist equipment including stair-climbing trolleys, furniture sliders, and shoulder straps to navigate tight staircases safely. We carry stair coverings to protect the property throughout. If you have concerns about access, contact us before booking and we'll advise on the best approach for your specific staircase.
What size of furniture can you move?
We move everything from single chairs and small cabinets up to king-size beds, large corner sofas, and American-style fridge freezers. For very large or unusually shaped pieces — grand pianos, antique armoires, or custom-built shelving — contact us in advance so we can assess access routes and bring the right equipment.
There is very little we cannot move safely with the right preparation.
Do you offer Edinburgh furniture recycling as part of your service?
Yes. If you're replacing old furniture and need the existing pieces removed, we offer Edinburgh furniture recycling and disposal as an add-on to any delivery job. Usable items are passed to local charity partners. Items beyond reuse are taken to licensed recycling facilities.
This is a popular option for customers who are upgrading entire rooms or clearing a property after a bereavement or end of tenancy.
How far in advance do I need to book?
We recommend booking at least 48 hours ahead where possible to guarantee your preferred date and time. For same-day or next-day delivery in Leith Walk, message us on live chat to check availability — we often have capacity at short notice.
During busy periods, such as end-of-month dates when tenancy agreements typically change, earlier booking is advisable to secure the slot you want.
Are you insured for furniture delivery in Edinburgh?
Yes. Giant Van carries full goods-in-transit insurance and public liability insurance on every job. Your furniture is covered from the moment it's loaded onto the van until it's placed in its final position at the delivery address. In the unlikely event of damage, we deal with claims directly and fairly. Full insurance details are available on request before you book.
Do you provide furniture delivery in Leith Walk on weekends?
Yes, we operate seven days a week including Saturdays and Sundays. Weekend delivery slots are popular, particularly for customers who cannot take time off work mid-week. Book as early as you can for weekend slots, especially at end of month.
Our pricing is the same regardless of day — no weekend surcharges or hidden fees apply to standard furniture delivery jobs in the Edinburgh area.
Can I get a quote for furniture delivery in Leith Walk before committing?
Yes. Use the online quote tool on giantvan.com to get an instant price based on your items, addresses, and date. There is no obligation to book after receiving the quote. For more complex jobs or multiple items, call our Edinburgh team for a tailored estimate.
We do not charge for quotes or pre-move assessments, and our prices are fixed — the quote you receive is the price you pay.
