Moving in Edinburgh — what to know
Local considerations for your antiques & fine art delivery in Edinburgh.
- ✓The Edinburgh Festival (last two weeks of August) causes major road closures and heavy traffic throughout the city. Moving in central Edinburgh during August is significantly harder and more expensive — aim for July or September if possible.
- ✓Edinburgh's Low Emission Zone covers the city centre. Non-compliant vehicles face charges from 2025 — confirm your driver is compliant before booking.
- ✓Most Edinburgh properties are tenement flats (4-storey sandstone buildings with no lifts). Always specify the floor level and stair access in your job description.
- ✓New Town, Marchmont and Morningside have strict resident parking permit schemes. You may need to arrange a temporary parking suspension from Edinburgh City Council.

July is the best month to move — before Festival chaos. September is very busy for student moves (University of Edinburgh, Heriot-Watt, Napier).
Festival period (August) road closures make city centre moves very difficult. Parking suspensions for tenement flats often need 2 weeks' notice.

Antiques & Fine Art Delivery in Edinburgh — FAQ
What are antique removals?
Antique removals is the specialist transport and delivery of antique furniture, fine art, ceramics, and other valuable pieces — as opposed to standard removals. Specialist antique removal drivers carry appropriate protective equipment and understand how to handle fragile, high-value items safely.
How much do antique removals cost?
Antique removal costs depend on the size, fragility, distance, and number of pieces. A single antique item locally might start from £80. A large piece of antique furniture transported long-distance might be £300+. Posting on We Got The Move lets specialist antique transport drivers compete for your job.
How are antiques protected during transport?
Specialist antique removal drivers use protective blankets, bubble wrap, custom-cut foam, and purpose-built crates for high-value items. Describe your piece in detail when posting — material, dimensions, and approximate value — so specialist drivers can respond with appropriate packaging.
Are antiques insured during transport?
Standard Goods in Transit insurance may have limits on high-value items. If your piece is particularly valuable, ask your chosen driver specifically about their cover limits and whether you need additional insurance. Your home contents or specialist art insurance may also provide transit cover.
Can you collect antiques from an auction house?
Yes — auction house antique collections are common. Provide the auction house address, lot number, and any collection window when posting. Specialist antique transport drivers familiar with auction collections will respond.
Can I get antique removals for large furniture?
Yes — specialist antique removal drivers have experience with large, heavy antique furniture including wardrobes, chests, dressers, and dining tables. Describe any access restrictions (narrow doorways, stairs) when posting so drivers can quote accurately.
