Moving in Edinburgh: What You Need to Know
Parking & Access
Limited on-street parking with pay-and-display bays and resident-only zones. Loading bays are time-restricted and enforcement is active.
Apply for a temporary parking suspension through your local council at least 5 working days before your move. Our crew will manage parking logistics on the day.
Terraced streets with cars parked on both sides can make it difficult to position a removal van close to your front door.
Our crews carry sack trolleys, furniture dollies, and ramps to cover the distance efficiently. Let us know about any access concerns when booking.
Local Regulations
Parking Restrictions
Check with Edinburgh council for any controlled parking zones near your property. Temporary dispensations for removal vehicles are usually available with 5 working days notice.
Emission Standards
All Giant Van vehicles meet Euro 6 emission standards and are compliant with all UK Clean Air Zones. No additional charges will be passed on to you.
Local Tips
Book your move for mid-week if possible. Roads are quietest on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, reducing transit time.
If you are moving from an upper-floor flat without lift access, let us know in advance so we can bring extra crew and equipment.
Check whether your new property has any access restrictions or requires booking a goods lift. Many managed buildings in Edinburgh restrict removals to specific hours.
Keep essentials (kettle, phone chargers, toilet roll) in a separate bag for easy access on arrival.
