Moving in Edinburgh — what to know
Local considerations for your house removals 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.

Indicative ranges for Edinburgh — drivers compete on We Got The Move, so you choose the best price. Free to post, pay just £9.99 when you accept.
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.

House Removals in Edinburgh — FAQ
How much does a house removal cost?
Costs vary by the size of your home, distance, and how many drivers bid. A studio flat move locally might start from £150, while a 4-bedroom house move could be £800+. By posting on We Got The Move, drivers compete which keeps prices down.
How far in advance should I book?
We recommend posting your job at least 2–4 weeks before your moving date, especially for weekend moves which book up quickly. However, drivers can often accommodate shorter notice for weekday moves.
Do removal drivers help with packing?
Some do, some don't — it depends on the driver. Mention in your job description if you need packing help and drivers who offer this service will include it in their bid.
What happens if something gets damaged?
This is a matter between you and your chosen driver. We recommend selecting a driver with Goods in Transit insurance, which covers loss or damage to your belongings during the move. Always check this before accepting a bid.
Can I get a removal quote on the same day?
Yes — most jobs receive multiple bids within a few hours. For same-day or next-day moves, post as early as possible to give drivers time to respond.
Is it free to post a house removal job?
Yes — posting is completely free. You only pay a £9.99 introduction fee when you choose to accept a driver's bid. There's no obligation to accept any bid you receive.
How do I find house removals near me?
Instead of ringing around local firms, post your move once and removal companies near you come to you with quotes. Drivers on We Got The Move cover their local area, so the bids you receive are from movers genuinely based nearby — compare their prices and reviews before choosing.
