Selling a changing table in Edinburgh
August brings a large temporary population that arrives with things and leaves without them, and September brings the students. Between them the autumn is reliably the best time to buy here and a slower time to sell.
The Old Town is steep, cobbled and awkward for vehicles, with restricted access on several streets, so anything heavy needs a conversation about where a van can actually stop. Trams and buses cover the rest of the city and handle small handovers fine.
Check vehicle access before agreeing to collect anything heavy from the Old Town. Several streets are restricted or effectively impassable for a van, and the nearest legal stopping point can be a long carry.
Edinburgh, in Scotland, has around 530,000 people, which means a steady local market where the usual things move reliably and the unusual ones are worth listing with a wider radius in mind. Glasgow, Aberdeen and Dundee are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
