Edinburgh man and van, from tenements to the bypass

Our man and van service in Edinburgh is built for tenement flats, student moves, Marketplace pickups and furniture bought across town. Choose a van and a time, then see the price before you confirm. It works well for flat moves in Leith, Morningside, Marchmont and Corstorphine alike.

Edinburgh has cobbled streets, steep stairs, permit parking and trams, so local knowledge matters. Our crews plan loading and routes out to the City Bypass with that in mind. Our insured movers bring blankets, straps and tools, and we also offer house removals, furniture delivery and clearances across the city.

What our Edinburgh customers say

Feb 2024

The two men that did my move were very nice and helpful

I had to book a move last minute and the phone agent made it very easy for me. The movers, Stephen and his partner, were also super helpful. Kept to time and did my move within 2 hours. I highly recommend them in Edinburgh.

Moving in Edinburgh

What our Edinburgh crews plan for

What makes the difference on moving day in Edinburgh, based on our 114 local jobs.

Tenement stairs and common closes

31 in 100 of our Edinburgh jobs have stairs at one end or both. Many tenements have a shared common stair and no lift, so tell us the floor when you book and we will plan the carry.

Parking permits and controlled zones

Much of central Edinburgh sits in controlled parking zones, with pay-and-display and permit bays near the door. If you can, ask the council for a parking suspension, or tell us where a van can legally stop.

The Edinburgh LEZ in the city centre

The Edinburgh Low Emission Zone covers the city centre, including the Old Town and the first New Town. We check routes in and out of the zone before the day, so you do not need to do anything extra.

Best days to book

Across Edinburgh, Saturday is our busiest day (22% of jobs) and Thursday the quietest (6%). May is our busiest month and April the quietest, so a midweek date in spring gives you the widest choice of slots.

Trams, hills and the City Bypass

The tram runs from Newhaven down Leith Walk and along Princes Street to the airport, and many Old Town streets are steep and cobbled. For moves to the suburbs, the A720 City Bypass is usually the quickest way round.
