Where We Deliver in Stockbridge
Understanding the property mix helps us plan the right crew size, van, and equipment for your move.
What We Bring to Stockbridge
Giant Van offers three core service tiers for Stockbridge residents and businesses, each priced to match the job size.
Our Man and Van service starts from £48 and runs up to £300 depending on distance and load volume. It suits single-item deliveries such as sofas bought from Stockbridge antique dealers along St Stephen Street, or flat-pack wardrobes picked up from a retailer elsewhere in Edinburgh. You get one trained mover plus the vehicle.
Our House Moves service covers full property relocations from £250 to £850. This tier is popular with residents leaving a ground-floor Georgian flat on Ann Street or moving into one of the converted townhouses near Inverleith Terrace. Two or more movers handle the packing, carrying, and loading so you do not have to lift a finger.
Our Office Moves service runs from £300 to £600 and covers small commercial premises, creative studios, and consulting offices. Stockbridge has a growing number of independent businesses along Raeburn Place and Deanhaugh Street, and our crews handle desks, filing cabinets, and shelving units with care.
All tiers include a padded transit blanket wrap for large items, a van loaded to capacity, and courteous movers who work to a schedule. Every charge, including access, distance and clean-air zones, is shown in your quote before you pay.
How Stockbridge Roads Shape Our Plan
Stockbridge presents access challenges that differ from most Edinburgh postcodes.
The area sits within the EH3 and EH4 postcode zones, and large portions of the street layout date back to the early nineteenth century. Roads were designed for horse-drawn carts, not long-wheelbase vans.
Raeburn Place, the main commercial artery, allows delivery vehicles during certain hours but parking bays fill quickly.
Our drivers plan stops early in the morning or contact the local parking team at City of Edinburgh Council in advance to arrange a temporary suspension bay where required. This avoids costly fines and keeps your delivery on schedule.
India Street and its immediate neighbours in the Dean Village conservation area require extra planning.
The cobbled lanes between Bell's Brae and Miller Row are narrow, and some properties have no direct vehicle access.
In these cases, our crews carry items on foot for short distances and factor that into the quote upfront rather than as a surprise charge on the day.
Basement flats are common throughout Stockbridge, particularly on Saxe-Coburg Street and the streets running off St Bernard's Crescent.
External stairwells are often steep and curved. Our movers are trained to use furniture straps and two-person carries on tight stairs, and we carry a set of stair-climbing dollies on every job.
We always ask about access during booking so we can send the right vehicle size.
Narrow entrances on streets such as Leslie Place or Cumberland Street may mean a standard Luton van is unsuitable, and we can swap to a smaller Transit where needed.
Furniture Delivery Prices for Stockbridge, Edinburgh
Our pricing is fixed and quoted upfront. Man and Van delivery starts at £45 for short local jobs and runs up to £300 for longer distances or larger single-item loads. Full house moves in and around Stockbridge are priced between £250 and £850 depending on property size, number of items, and access conditions.
Office and commercial moves range from £300 to £600. All prices include transit wrapping, movers, stair carries up to three floors, and furniture placement. Message us in the live chat for your specific quote.
All prices include a fully insured crew, van, and moving blankets. Packing services available as add-ons.
Work Out Your Moving CostA Simple Stockbridge Moving Prep Plan
Stockbridge properties built pre-1900 often have doorframes narrower than 75 cm. Measure the narrowest point your furniture must pass through and share those figures when you call. Our team will advise whether a piece needs to be disassembled or hoisted.
Remove shoes, coats, and anything from hallways. If you live on Comely Bank Road or Glenogle Road, check your communal stair door can be propped open safely and notify your neighbours beforehand.
The City of Edinburgh Council typically requires three to five working days' notice for a suspension on streets such as Dean Park Crescent or Howard Place. Giant Van can advise on this, but the application sits with the householder.
Our movers will place furniture exactly where you want it, but repositioning heavy pieces after delivery takes time and may not always be possible if stairs are involved. A simple floor plan sketch saves confusion.
IKEA PAX wardrobes and modular shelving systems are far easier to carry up narrow closes in Stockbridge when broken down into their component sections.
Raeburn Place and St Stephen Street see heavy foot and vehicle traffic from mid-morning onwards. A 7:30 or 8:00 am start means easier parking and a quicker job overall.

Every Stockbridge Neighbourhood, Covered
Giant Van operates across the full Stockbridge area and the surrounding EH3, EH4, and EH6 postcode zones.
The streets and neighbourhoods we cover regularly include the following.
Stockbridge village centre and the immediate streets off Raeburn Place and St Stephen Street fall within our standard Edinburgh rate.
Comely Bank, stretching from Comely Bank Avenue north towards Craigleith Road, is covered at the same rate. Dean Village, sitting in the valley below the Dean Bridge on Bell's Brae, is covered with the access notes described above.
We cover Inverleith and its streets along Arboretum Place and Inverleith Row regularly.
Canonmills and its EH3 7 postcodes, including Canon Street and Henderson Row, are part of our core Stockbridge delivery zone.
Further afield from the Stockbridge area, we reach Broughton and the New Town streets including Drummond Place, Great King Street, and Dundas Street on a daily basis.
Goldenacre, Newhaven, and Trinity to the north fall within our Edinburgh delivery coverage. Across the Water of Leith, we serve Murrayfield, Ravelston, and Blackhall regularly.
If you are not sure if your address falls within the standard Edinburgh furniture delivery rate, call.
We will confirm coverage and give you a firm quote in under two minutes. Jobs outside the standard coverage zone carry a modest mileage supplement rather than a flat refusal.
A Note From Our Stockbridge Team
We know Stockbridge 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 Stockbridge depends on it.

Reliable Moves in Stockbridge, Every Time
Stockbridge customers have specific expectations, and our service is built around them.
Local knowledge sets us apart. Our Edinburgh crews know that the approach to Dean Village from Belford Road is a different access challenge to the one-way system on North West Circus Place.
They know that permit zones on Leslie Place run from 8:30 am and that the loading bay outside the shops on Raeburn Place has a one-hour limit on weekday mornings. That knowledge saves time and prevents costly mistakes.
Fixed pricing removes uncertainty. Many removal firms charge by the hour, which penalises customers when access is difficult or when a flight of Stockbridge tenement stairs takes longer than expected. Giant Van quotes a fixed price before we start. If the job takes longer because of access issues we should have anticipated, that is our problem, not yours.
Professional movers make the difference. Every move is handled by experienced, vetted crews. They are trained in furniture carrying technique, customer communication, and property care. Original Victorian cornicing and solid oak floors in Stockbridge properties are treated with the respect they deserve.
We have moved furniture into and out of every type of Stockbridge property: Georgian flats with original sash windows on Ann Street, modern conversions behind St Bernard's Crescent, basement studios in EH3 5, and penthouse flats above the retail units on Deanhaugh Street. That experience shows in how smoothly our jobs run.

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 Timing Affects Your Stockbridge Quote
Parking on Raeburn Place, Hamilton Place, and the streets running off St Stephen Street is most available before the permit zones activate and before shoppers arrive at the independent retailers that make the area so well known.
Dean Park Street, Saxe-Coburg Place, and the quieter lanes around St Bernard's Row see lower footfall on early Saturday mornings than they do mid-afternoon.
The roads become congested quickly and parking is contested.
If you need to deliver during August, book at least three weeks in advance and choose the earliest available morning slot. The Water of Leith walkway attracts heavy foot traffic during festival weeks, which can slow external carry-distance jobs near Dean Village.
If your timeline is flexible, booking in the first quarter of the year often gives you the widest choice of time slots and the easiest parking conditions.

Edinburgh Furniture Delivery in Stockbridge, EH3 and EH4 — FAQs
How much does furniture delivery cost in Stockbridge, Edinburgh?
Man and Van delivery in Stockbridge starts at £45 and reaches up to £300 for larger single-item loads. Full house moves range from £250 to £850, and office moves cost between £300 and £600. All prices are fixed and quoted before we start.
Call and we will give you a specific price based on your items and your address in EH3 or EH4.
Can Giant Van handle deliveries to basement flats in Stockbridge?
Yes. Basement flat deliveries are very common for us in Stockbridge, particularly on Saxe-Coburg Street and the streets near St Bernard's Crescent. Our movers carry stair-climbing dollies and furniture straps on every job. We ask about access during booking so we can plan the right approach and give you an accurate fixed price before we arrive.
Do you cover Dean Village and the streets near Bell's Brae?
Yes, Dean Village is within our standard Stockbridge coverage area. The cobbled lanes near Bell's Brae and Miller Row require careful planning due to vehicle access restrictions. Our drivers assess the best approach during booking, and for properties without direct van access we carry items on foot for short distances. This is included in your quoted price.
What is the best time to book a furniture delivery in Stockbridge?
Weekday mornings between 7:30 am and 10:00 am work best in Stockbridge. Parking on Raeburn Place and the streets nearby is easiest before permit zones activate and before the morning retail traffic builds up. Early Saturday mornings also work well for quieter residential streets. Avoid August if possible, as Edinburgh Festival congestion affects delivery times across the area.
Is stair carry included in the price for Stockbridge tenements?
Yes. Stair carries up to three flights are included in our standard rate for all Stockbridge jobs. Properties above three floors carry a small additional charge, which we tell you about before confirming your booking. Your quote includes stairs so the price you accept at booking is the price you pay.
Our movers are experienced with Edinburgh tenement stairs and carry the right equipment for every property type.
Can you help with parking permits and suspension bays on Stockbridge streets?
We can advise you on the process for applying for a temporary parking suspension on permit-only streets such as Dean Park Crescent or Howard Place. The application itself sits with City of Edinburgh Council and needs to come from the householder, typically three to five working days in advance.
Our team will tell you exactly what you need during the booking call so nothing is missed.
Do you deliver furniture bought from dealers on St Stephen Street?
Yes. Collecting from antique dealers, vintage furniture shops, or any commercial premises on St Stephen Street is a routine job for our Stockbridge team. We collect directly from the seller and deliver to your home address in Stockbridge or anywhere else within our Edinburgh delivery area. Antique and vintage pieces receive padded transit blanket protection throughout the journey.
How far in advance do I need to book a Stockbridge furniture delivery?
For most Stockbridge deliveries, 48 hours notice is sufficient outside of peak periods. During August when Edinburgh Festival congestion is at its highest, we recommend booking at least three weeks ahead to secure your preferred time slot. For urgent same-day or next-day jobs, call directly and our team will confirm availability on the spot.
