Sofa collection in Edinburgh covers the EH1, EH2, EH3, EH4, EH5 postcode districts and 14 more, including The New Town area, then, in this case and Covers Leith. Send a photo, get a fixed price for the whole job, and leave the carrying to two people who do it every day.
Edinburgh is 6 miles from Musselburgh and 6 miles from Dalkeith, both of which we also cover, so a collection here is often combined with others nearby and can usually be fitted in quickly. Tell us when suits you and we book it. The crew arrives, lifts the sofa out and loads it, and you pay the quoted price once it is on the van.
Nothing we collect in Edinburgh is fly-tipped or left in a lay-by. Sofas go to a licensed waste transfer station under our upper tier waste carrier licence, CBDU526130, where the frame, foam and fabric are separated, or they are passed on for reuse where they are still sound and carry a fire label. If you would rather use the bulky waste service from City of Edinburgh Council, it is booked ahead and the sofa usually has to be put outside on the day.
One fixed price from your photo
Send a picture, get a price for the whole job, pay once it is on the van. If anything looks different from the photo when we arrive, we tell you before we lift it.

How a Edinburgh collection works
-
Send a photo
Take a picture of the sofa where it stands and email it to us, with a line about the floor it is on and your Edinburgh postcode. The form on this page writes the email for you.
-
Get a fixed price
We reply with one price for the whole job: the carrying, the loading and the disposal. Nothing is added on the day.
-
Pick a slot
Tell us when suits and we book it. Same-day or next-day collection in Edinburgh is offered wherever possible.
-
Pay once it is loaded
Two people carry the sofa out, lift it onto the van and you pay the quoted price. You do not move it, strip it or put it outside.
Why people use us
Licensed waste carrier
Upper tier licence CBDU526130, registered with the Environment Agency. We can tell you where your sofa went and provide a waste transfer note.
Insured in your home
Public liability insurance up to £5 million and employers' liability of £10 million while the crew is carrying the sofa through your property.
Two people, every job
A sofa is lifted and carried by two people, never dragged. More than 15 years of doing this and over 500 jobs completed.
Most of it is recycled
90% of what we collect is recycled, and sofas that are still usable with their fire label are passed on for reuse where possible.

Sofa removal in Edinburgh: questions answered
Which parts of Edinburgh do you cover?
We cover every Edinburgh postcode district: EH1, EH2, EH3, EH4, EH5, EH6, EH7, EH8, EH9, EH10, EH11, EH12, EH13, EH15, EH16, EH17, EH28, EH29 and EH99. If your postcode district is not in that list, send a photo anyway and we will tell you straight away.
How quickly can you collect a sofa in Edinburgh?
Same-day or next-day collection is offered wherever possible. Email early in the morning for the best chance of a slot that day, and we tell you what we can do before you commit.
Can you collect from a flat in Edinburgh?
Yes. Two people carry the sofa down the stairs or take it in the lift. Say which floor it is on and whether there is a lift, and the price we send already allows for the route.
Do I need to be in?
Someone needs to let the crew in and point to the sofa. If a neighbour, a letting agent or a key safe can do that instead, say so in your email.
What happens to my sofa after collection?
Reusable sofas with their fire safety label are passed on where possible. The rest go to a licensed waste transfer station, where the frame, foam and fabric are separated. Upholstered furniture is kept out of landfill.
Why not use the council bulky waste collection in Edinburgh?
You can, through City of Edinburgh Council. It is booked ahead and the sofa usually has to go outside on the set day. We collect from the room it is in and aim for same-day or next-day where possible. Send a photo and compare.
