Pool tables are among the heaviest, most awkward items in any home. A standard pool table weighs 200-500kg with a slate bed that's incredibly difficult to handle. Moving one requires dismantling, specialist knowledge and a team strong enough to carry slate sections down stairs and through doorways. Our Edinburgh team does this regularly — it's what we do.
Pool tables often end up stuck in rooms they can never leave. They were delivered in pieces by the manufacturer and reassembled inside — but when it's time to get rid of them, many homeowners discover they can't get the table out in one piece. Doorways are too narrow, stairwells are too tight, and the weight makes it impossible to manoeuvre.
As Scotland's historic capital city, Edinburgh in City of Edinburgh has a growing need for professional pool table removal services. Whether you're in Leith, Morningside or anywhere across the EH1, EH2 postcode areas, our team provides fast, reliable service with no hidden costs.
A standard 7ft pool table with a slate bed weighs around 300kg. A full-size snooker table can weigh over 500kg. Moving one isn't a two-person job — it requires dismantling the frame, carefully removing the slate bed in sections, and carrying each heavy piece out separately. Most removal companies won't even attempt it.

Getting a single heavy item out of a Edinburgh home depends on the home. Edinburgh is tenements from Leith to Gorgie and Marchmont, Georgian townhouses in the New Town, colony flats, bungalows across the outer suburbs, and student housing everywhere south of the Meadows.
Across Edinburgh the regular calls come from Craigmillar, housing-association voids and regeneration; Leith, tenements and new dockside flats with the fastest tenancy churn in the city; Morningside, Victorian tenements and villas with big rooms and heavy furniture; Gorgie and Dalry, colony flats and tenements with tight stairs.
Edinburgh's recycling centres are Seafield, Sighthill at Bankhead and Craigmillar; they are car-focused and self-unload. City of Edinburgh Council charges per item for special uplifts; see our Edinburgh uplift guide. Staff at the sites will not lift for you, which is the whole problem with a sofa or a washing machine. Our Edinburgh Council Bulky Uplift 2026 — Costs, Wait Times, Tenement Reality has the detail.
On access: Controlled parking zones across the centre, tenement stairs, and the tram works all matter. Mattress and sofa collections are the jobs we do most in Edinburgh.
