Tips for 3 bed moves in Edinburgh

  • 1Old Town and New Town tenements may require carrying items up several flights of narrow stairs - factor in extra labour.

  • 3Many properties in Stockbridge, Morningside and Bruntsfield have basement or lower-ground access - check for step counts.
  • 5Professional removal companies are strongly recommended for 3-bed moves.
  • 6Check if your removers offer dismantling and reassembly of beds and flat-pack furniture.

FAQ

How much does a 3-bed move cost in the UK?+

A 3-bedroom move typically costs £600-£1,000 for local moves and £900-£1,500 for long-distance. The final cost depends on distance, amount of furniture, access, and time of year.

How many movers do I need for a 3-bed house?+

We recommend at least 2 movers for a 3-bed house. For larger properties or those with difficult access (flights of stairs, no parking), a team of 3 may be more efficient.

Book 6-8 weeks in advance for the best prices and availability. During peak season (summer months, end of month), booking even earlier is advisable.
