Southside Edinburgh student and flat moves by van
The Southside is full of student flats and shared lets around the University of Edinburgh, so student moves are a big part of our man and van service. We also help with flat moves, second-hand furniture and boxes. Choose a van and a time, and see the price before you confirm.
The area sits between the Old Town and Holyrood Park, with university buildings around George Square and flats along the Pleasance. Stairs are common and parking is tight, so tell us the floor when you book. Our insured movers also offer house removals, furniture delivery and clearances.

What our Edinburgh customers say
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.

What our Southside EH8 crews plan for
Practical points for moving in and around the Southside, from our 14 jobs in EH8.
Common stairs and flats
31 in 100 of our Edinburgh jobs have stairs at one end or both. Southside flats are often up a shared stair, so tell us the floor and any tight turns on the landing when you book.
Permit bays and narrow streets
The Southside is inside Edinburgh’s controlled parking zones, and streets such as the Pleasance and St Leonard’s are tight for a van. Look into a parking suspension early, or tell us where loading is allowed nearby.
Term dates and busy weekends
Across Edinburgh, Saturday is our busiest day (22% of jobs) and Thursday the quietest (6%). Near the university, the start and end of term can fill the streets, so book early if your date falls then.
Low Emission Zone next door
The Edinburgh Low Emission Zone covers the city centre, which starts just north of the Southside. We check routes into the centre in advance, so you do not need to plan around it yourself.
