Moving from Manchester to Edinburgh is a popular long-distance route, particularly for professionals relocating for work in Scotland's capital. Daley & Co has been making this journey for decades, with experienced long-distance crews who know both cities inside out.

Moving to Edinburgh

Edinburgh is one of the UK's most beautiful and sought-after cities, with a world-class cultural scene, excellent schools, and a thriving economy. Property prices are comparable to Manchester in many areas, though the city centre and New Town command a premium.

The Route

The most common route is via the M6 and A74(M) motorways. Journey time is approximately 3.5–4.5 hours. For larger properties, we typically plan a two-day move.
