University of Edinburgh

Yes, the University of Edinburgh's campuses and halls across EH1, EH8, EH9 and EH16 are all inside our Edinburgh EH coverage. Our Scotland run calls every other Thursday, delivering in the morning and collecting in the afternoon, with London served on Wednesdays, Cambridge on Tuesdays, and Oxford and Swindon on Saturdays.

Halls and accommodation we collect from: Pollock Halls, Salisbury Court, Kincaid's Court, Darroch Court, Sciennes, plus every private hall and student flat in EH8, EH9, EH16, EH1.

Term pattern: Two semesters, roughly September to December and January to May. September sees the heaviest moves into Pollock Halls and the Southside, with a second wave each summer as students leave halls for Marchmont and Newington flats.

How it works: book online with both postcodes, bring your pieces to the door on the day (or choose Assisted and we carry them from your room), and we deliver to the other end on the published day. You get a 4-hour window by text the evening before each leg, and £50 cover per piece is included.

Questions

How much does it cost to send my room from University of Edinburgh?

Up to 4 boxes, bags or suitcases is £149 with Kerbside collection. A typical room of 10 pieces is £239, and a bike adds £59. Prices include VAT and are the same in both directions.

Do you collect from University of Edinburgh halls?

Yes. We collect from Pollock Halls, Salisbury Court, Kincaid's Court, Darroch Court and every other hall or student flat in the area. Scottish collections are on Thursdays. Kerbside means you bring everything to the front door or hall reception point; Assisted means we carry from your room.

When should I book around term dates?

Two semesters, roughly September to December and January to May. Book at least a week before you want collection so you get your preferred run; end of term runs fill first.
