Mattress Delivery Edinburgh
Giant Van Removals handles mattress removal in Edinburgh with care and speed. If you're clearing a spare room, upgrading your bed, or moving home, our team lifts, wraps, and transports your mattress safely. We cover all Edinburgh postcodes, from Morningside to Leith, with flexible same-day and next-day slots.
Edinburgh is Scotland's capital city and home to around 540,000 people living across a wide range of housing types, from Georgian New Town flats and Victorian tenements in Marchmont and Bruntsfield to modern developments in Granton, Craigmillar, and Boroughmuir. Mattress removal in Edinburgh requires experience with tight stairwells, limited street parking, and the city's varied geography, including steep gradients in areas like Hillside and the West End.
Giant Van Removals operates across all EH postcodes, from EH1 in the city centre out to EH17 in the south and EH5 in the north near Newhaven.
We understand Edinburgh's logistics and plan every job accordingly.

What Sets Our Edinburgh Mattress Delivery Apart
Edinburgh City Council accepts mattresses at its Household Waste Recycling Centres in Seafield and Bankhead, but getting a bulky item there without a van is difficult.
Giant Van can collect your old mattress and take it directly to a licensed disposal facility, saving you the hassle.
We separate springs, foam, and fabric where possible to maximise recycling.
A disposal fee applies but is far cheaper than private skip hire.
If your mattress is still in good condition, we can coordinate a donation collection to Edinburgh charities such as Bethany Christian Trust.

When Is the Best Time to Move?
UK moving demand follows seasonal patterns. Off-peak months typically offer lower prices and more crew availability.

Giant Van vs Other Mattress Removal Options in Edinburgh
Edinburgh's housing stock presents real challenges for mattress removal.
Tenement flats in Marchmont, Tollcross, and the New Town often have narrow stairwells, low ceilings, and tight landings that make moving a king-size mattress genuinely difficult.
Our crew is experienced with these layouts and carries the right equipment, including shoulder straps and furniture sliders, to move large items without damaging walls or banisters.
We have completed hundreds of mattress removals in Edinburgh properties that other companies have declined.
If you live in a top-floor flat with no lift, we still take the job.
Timing matters when you are replacing a mattress or moving home.
Giant Van offers same-day mattress removal in Edinburgh on most weekdays, with weekend availability on request.
We operate from early morning to early evening across the city.
Our online booking and phone lines are answered seven days a week.
For landlords clearing Edinburgh rental properties between tenancies, we offer priority slots and account invoicing for multiple jobs.
Estate agents and lettings managers use us regularly because we turn up on time, complete the job cleanly, and leave the property ready for the next tenant.

Moving Guides and Advice
Mattress Delivery Edinburgh — FAQs
How much does mattress removal cost in Edinburgh?
Prices start from around £45 to £75 for a single mattress collection and local delivery within Edinburgh, depending on access difficulty and distance. A double or king-size mattress may cost slightly more due to weight and size. Long-distance moves, such as Edinburgh to London, are priced on a shared-load basis and typically cost between £80 and £150.
We give you a fixed quote before the job starts with no hidden charges on the day.
Can you collect a mattress from a high-floor Edinburgh flat with no lift?
Yes. This is one of our specialisms. Edinburgh tenements routinely have four or five floors with no lift. Our crew uses shoulder straps, furniture sliders, and careful teamwork to navigate narrow staircases safely. We assess access when you book and always send the right number of people for the job.
There may be a small stair surcharge for properties above the third floor, which we confirm in your quote upfront.
Do you offer same-day mattress removal in Edinburgh?
Same-day collection is available on most weekdays subject to availability. If you message us before 10am, we can usually fit your job in the same afternoon. Weekend slots book up faster, so booking the day before is advisable. We always confirm a two-hour arrival window and text you 30 minutes before the driver reaches you.
What is the cheapest way to move furniture from Edinburgh to London?
The cheapest furniture removal from Edinburgh to London is our shared-load service. Your items travel in the same vehicle as other customers' goods heading to London, so you only pay for the cubic footage or weight you use. This cuts costs by 40 to 60 percent compared to a dedicated lorry.
Delivery to London typically takes 24 to 48 hours after Edinburgh collection. Items are fully wrapped and covered by goods-in-transit insurance.
Can Giant Van dispose of my old mattress responsibly?
Yes. We take old mattresses to licensed disposal facilities that separate foam, springs, and fabric for recycling. We do not fly-tip or dump mattresses in skips without authorisation. If your mattress is still in usable condition, we can arrange a donation to Edinburgh charities. A disposal fee applies and is included in your quote.
This avoids the hassle of getting a bulky item to one of Edinburgh's Household Waste Recycling Centres without a van.
How does your 4 hour van hire in Edinburgh work?
You book a panel van for a four-hour slot, collect the keys from our Edinburgh depot, and use the van as needed within the city. All vans include a tail lift, furniture blankets, and trolley. Fuel is pre-loaded; you return the van with the same amount. There are no hidden mileage charges within Edinburgh.
This option suits people with helpers who just need a vehicle large enough for a mattress or a few items of furniture.
Do you provide professional removals for full Edinburgh house moves?
Yes. Our professional removals in Edinburgh cover everything from studio flats to large family homes. We handle disassembly and reassembly of beds, wardrobes, and flat-pack furniture, plus packing services if needed. All moves include public liability and goods-in-transit insurance. We serve all Edinburgh postcodes and offer fixed-price quotes based on the volume of items and access conditions at both addresses.
Contact us for a free home survey on larger moves.
Is parking a problem for your Edinburgh mattress deliveries?
Edinburgh has extensive controlled parking zones, particularly in the New Town, Southside, and Leith. Our drivers are familiar with these restrictions and carry temporary loading bay signs where permitted. For properties on streets with severe restrictions, we may ask you to arrange a council parking suspension in advance, which we can help you apply for.
We factor any parking access issues into our arrival time estimate so the job runs without delays.
