Moving and Delivery in Bonnyrigg
Bonnyrigg is a busy residential town in Midlothian, sitting about eight miles south-east of Edinburgh city centre. It has grown steadily over the decades, and today it handles a high volume of local moves every week. Families shift between streets in Poltonhall and Thornybank. Students move into or out of shared houses near the town centre.
Landlords turn properties over on short timescales. All of them need a reliable man with van in Bonnyrigg that shows up on time and handles their belongings with care.
Giant Van operates across EH19 and the wider Edinburgh area. Our man and van service costs between £45 and £300 depending on load size, distance, and time needed. Small single-item jobs typically fall at the lower end. Full flat clears or multi-stop moves sit closer to the top.
You receive an itemised quote before we arrive, so there are no surprises on the day.
We also handle furniture deliveries from £48 to £120, packing services from £150, and same-day bookings from £80. If you need to move at short notice, call and we will tell you our next available slot. Most same-day requests in Bonnyrigg are confirmed within the hour.
Our vans are fully insured. Every driver is background-checked and trained in loading and securing loads correctly. We use blanket wrapping, furniture pads, and tie-down straps on every job. Your belongings arrive in the same condition they left.
Bonnyrigg: Parking and Access Sorted
Here in Edinburgh, bonnyrigg has a mix of older terraced streets and newer housing estates that present specific access challenges.
Knowing these in advance saves time and avoids last-minute problems on move day.
The A7 and A768 are the main arterial routes into town.
Both handle moderate traffic during morning and afternoon peaks. Our drivers account for this when scheduling arrival times.
King George V Park on Cockpen Road sits near several tightly packed residential streets.
Parking on these roads can be limited during school drop-off and pick-up hours between 8:30am and 9:15am, and again from 3:00pm to 3:45pm. If your property is on or near Hillview Road or Polton Street, we recommend booking your slot to start at 9:30am or later.
The Lasswade Road through Bonnyrigg narrows significantly near the town centre.
Larger removal vehicles struggle here. Our man and van service uses Transit-sized vans that navigate these pinch points without issue.
Thornybank Industrial Estate on the eastern edge of town has wide access roads and ample turning space.
If you are moving to or from a business unit in that area, there are no access concerns.
Poltonhall Road and the streets off it include some shared-access driveways and narrow lane entries.
Let us know at the time of booking and we will allocate a driver who knows the area. We carry loading ramps for kerb access and can park on nearby streets when direct access is impossible.
Bonnyrigg railway station has limited car park space.
Avoid arranging moves that require you to hold a parking bay near the station for extended periods.
Man and Van Prices in Bonnyrigg

Work Out Your Moving CostWhat to Pack First for a Bonnyrigg Move
These five steps make the difference between a stressful morning and one that runs to schedule.
Midlothian Council requires at least five working days' notice for a temporary parking suspension. If you need a bay held outside your Bonnyrigg property on moving day, contact the council early. Our team can advise on what to request if you are unsure.
Beds, wardrobes, and flat-pack shelving units from retailers like IKEA take up significantly less van space when broken down. This reduces the number of trips and keeps your quote at the lower end of the range. We can handle disassembly on request, but it is quicker and cheaper when done beforehand.
Our drivers stack vans methodically, with heavier boxes at the base. Clear labels help them load and unload in the right order. This is especially useful in properties on Cockpen Road or Lothian Street where narrow hallways make reorganising difficult once boxes are inside.
Our GPS tracking is live from the moment your driver is assigned. You can watch the van approach in real time and be ready at the door. This is useful if you are waiting at a second address and need to coordinate with utility providers or a letting agent.
If your move involves Polton Road near Lasswade, note that there is a rail bridge with restricted height clearance. Our drivers know this route and plan around it. But if you are hiring a separate vehicle for any reason, check the clearance before you set off.
