Properties We Cover in Easter Road
Understanding the property mix helps us plan the right crew size, van, and equipment for your move.
From Easter Road Flats to Houses
Easter Road sits in the north-east of Edinburgh, running through EH7 and touching parts of EH6. It is a busy residential and commercial corridor that connects Abbeyhill to Leith. The area is home to thousands of flats, tenement blocks, and terraced properties. Moving here requires local knowledge you do not get from a national booking platform.
Giant Van has completed hundreds of moves along Easter Road and the surrounding streets. Our drivers know the area well. They know where to park on Lochend Road. They know the tight close entrances on Albion Road. They know the loading bay restrictions outside the Easter Road shops near the Hibernian FC stadium.
Our man and van service covers single-item collections, flat clearances, and small house moves. Prices start from £48 for a basic furniture collection. Full van hire with a driver and a mate starts from £75 per hour. You pay only for the time you use, with no hidden charges added after the job.
We are fully insured for goods in transit. Every driver holds a valid UK licence and completes an in-house check before each job. You can book through our app, online, or by calling. Instant quotes are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Same-day availability is subject to driver capacity but we fulfil the vast majority of same-day requests in EH7 and EH6 without issue.
Easter Road Traffic and Moving Strategy
For Edinburgh customers, easter Road has specific access conditions that affect every removal job.
Getting these wrong adds time and cost. Here is what you need to know before booking.
Parking on Easter Road itself is restricted during match days at Easter Road Stadium.
Hibernian FC home fixtures bring crowds and road closures from late morning. If your move falls on a Saturday between August and May, check the fixture list. Our operations team does this automatically when you book, but it is worth knowing.
Residential streets off Easter Road have a mix of permit parking and double yellow lines.
Albion Road, Bothwell Street, and Lochend Road South all have active permit zones. Our vans carry loading permits for temporary stopping, but very narrow streets may require a parking suspension. We can arrange council suspensions in advance for an additional fee.
This is recommended for moves involving large lorries or when access to a tenement close is tight.
Tenement properties are the most common building type in EH7.
Many closes have internal doors with a minimum width of 79 centimetres. Wardrobes, sofas, and double beds sometimes cannot be removed through internal stairwells without partial disassembly. Our team carries basic disassembly tools on every job. We assess access on arrival and advise you before lifting anything.
The EH6 boundary near Leith Walk is within our standard Easter Road coverage.
If you are moving between Easter Road and a destination near Ocean Terminal or Newhaven, we can handle both ends of the job in a single booking at no additional call-out charge.

Work Out Your Moving CostWhat to Pack First for an Easter Road Move
They save time and money.
Easter Road Stadium is 200 metres from the main road. Parking becomes difficult from early afternoon on home fixture days. A morning start means the van loads and clears before the crowds arrive. Check the Hibernian FC website for home game dates if you are unsure.
Tenement closes on streets like Albion Terrace and Marionville Road can be narrow. A standard doorway measures 76 to 80 centimetres. Our crew can disassemble large furniture items on site, but it takes time. Measuring in advance avoids surprises on the day.
Contact City of Edinburgh Council at least five working days before your move if you need a parking suspension on Easter Road or any surrounding permit zone street. The fee is typically £65 to £80 per bay per day. We can manage this process on your behalf if requested at booking.
Tenement stairs are steep and narrow in older EH7 buildings. Heavy boxes slow the crew and increase the risk of damage to your belongings. Label each box with its destination room. This saves significant time at the other end.
Giant Van's GPS tracking shows your driver's position in real time. You do not need to wait at the property from the moment you book. Arrive when the van is ten minutes away.

Experience That Easter Road Can Count On
Giant Van operates differently from most removal companies. Here is what makes the difference on a practical level.
Same-day availability is genuine. We do not list same-day slots and then cancel when demand exceeds capacity. Our Edinburgh operation maintains a dedicated pool of drivers for short-notice EH7 and EH6 bookings. If a same-day slot shows available in the app, it is confirmed.
Instant quotes mean no waiting. You do not submit a form and wait 24 hours for a callback. Our pricing engine calculates the quote immediately based on your postcodes, volume, and required date. There are no hidden fees added for stairs, parking, or waiting time beyond the first 15 minutes.
The app makes the whole process transparent. GPS tracking, booking confirmation, driver profiles, and digital receipts are all in one place. You always know where your belongings are.
Full insurance is included. We carry goods in transit cover and public liability insurance on every job. If something is damaged during a move we organised, we handle the claim. You do not need to chase a third-party insurer.
Our team is professional. Drivers wear uniform, arrive in marked vehicles, and treat your property with care. We do not use subcontractors for Easter Road jobs. Every move is handled by experienced, vetted crews.
Pricing is transparent. Man and van from Easter Road starts at £45 for a single item. A two-person team with a large van for a one-bedroom flat clearance is typically between £150 and £250 depending on distance. Full house removals in the EH7 area range from £250 to £850. Call for a specific quote.

When Is the Best Time to Move?
UK moving demand follows seasonal patterns. Off-peak months typically offer lower prices and more crew availability.
Avoid the Rush in Easter Road
Here is what we know from running moves in EH7 across every month of the year.
Monday to Thursday between 7am and 11am offers the most driver availability and the easiest parking conditions. Permit zone streets in EH7 have fewer vehicles before office hours, making loading and unloading faster.
The last Friday of each month is the busiest removal day in Edinburgh. Students and tenancy end-dates cluster around the 28th to 31st. Slots fill up to two weeks in advance. If you have flexibility, move your date by even two or three days to access better pricing and availability.
June, July, and August see the highest volume of moves in Easter Road due to university tenancy cycles and families moving before the new school year. Book at least one week in advance during summer months for guaranteed availability.
January to March is our quietest period. Same-day availability in EH7 is highest during these months. If you are not tied to a specific date, a winter mid-week move is the most cost-effective option.
We still operate on these days, but early booking is essential. Our team checks fixtures during the booking process and flags potential delays.
Our team can advise on the cheapest available slot within your preferred window.
