Removals Edinburgh: Why Do People Move to & from Edinburgh?


Edinburgh, Scotland's capital, is a beautiful city with a rich history and culture. Many people move to Edinburgh for its stunning architecture, vibrant arts scene, and world-class universities. Others are drawn to the city's natural beauty, with the picturesque Arthur's Seat and the scenic Water of Leith.


However, some people may move away from Edinburgh due to the city's high cost of living or limited job opportunities in certain industries. Whatever the reason, Shiply is here to make your Edinburgh removals as smooth and stress-free as possible.


Types of Removal Services for Your Edinburgh Removals


A company offering a full moving service will assist you with the entire move, including packing, lifting at both ends, and unpacking in your new home. This type of service is typically at a higher cost due to the amount of work involved.


A part-service offers some of the same features as a full service, but not all. Typically, a part-service will include loading and unloading at both ends but will not include help with packing.


A self-service or self-packing move is the most basic and cost-effective of the removal types. Self-service can be either just hiring a van for you to drive yourself or hiring a driver with a vehicle to get your possessions from the old house to the new one.


When choosing between quotes from Removals Edinburgh companies on Shiply, make sure you understand the service that each quote includes, so you know exactly what to expect and can prepare for moving day.


Preparing for Your Edinburgh Removals


There are several things to do to prepare for moving day, which will help everything run more smoothly and minimize stress. Here are some tips to help you in the lead-up to your moving day:


Inform people about your move - As well as loved ones, remember to notify companies about your move, including energy providers, your bank, and Royal Mail.


Declutter - Try to get rid of things you don't want to keep, especially if your new home has less storage space than your current home.


Edinburgh, Edinburgh, UK

Ask supermarkets for leftover cardboard boxes - Boxes don't have to be expensive. Ask friends and family for spare boxes or visit your local supermarket to see if they have any in the stock room for you to have.


Removals Edinburgh companies suggest packing your most used items last - If you're struggling to get started with the packing, a great place to start is to pack the items you use the least, first.


Label everything - Make sure boxes are clearly labeled. You don't have to list everything in each box, but even writing which room it's for (e.g., kitchen, bedroom 1) will help the removal company know which room to take the box to and will help you when unpacking at the new home.


Edinburgh, Edinburgh removals

Recruit helpers - If you can and if you think you might need to, ask for help from those close to you to ease the load on moving day.


Keep in contact with your chosen company - If there are any changes that may affect how your chosen removal company can help you on the day, make sure you let them know so they are aware in advance.


Arrange cleaning in the old house - Whether you're cleaning it yourself or hiring a professional cleaning company, make sure you leave the old house empty, clean, and tidy for the next owners to move in.


Edinburgh, Edinburgh removals

Pack a moving day bag - A great idea is for everyone to have their own moving bag packed with essentials for the first few days in your new home.
