Skye removal costs and journey times

Explore our Isle of Skye service offer

Our rate card is £40 per hour for one man and van or £70 per hour for two men, with the first 10 miles included and £1 per mile after that. A Skye move needs a postcode-specific written quote covering actual mileage, handling, return travel, driver breaks and any overnight or agreed ferry costs. Journey time and availability must be confirmed before booking; there is no fixed island-wide price or timetable.

Areas of Skye we cover

Send an enquiry for Portree, Broadford, Kyleakin, Dunvegan, Uig, Staffin, Sleat or elsewhere on the island. Each address, access and date needs confirmation. VibeMove is based in Coatbridge, not on Skye.

How a move to or from Skye works

Send both postcodes, preferred dates, an inventory and access photos. We check route feasibility, vehicle suitability and crew availability before confirming a written quote. Planning includes loading, unloading, traffic, driver breaks and any overnight stop. No same-day delivery or exact arrival time is guaranteed.

Road access, Skye Bridge and optional ferries

The usual road option reaches Skye via the A87 and toll-free Skye Bridge; the approach depends on your collection address. Check Traffic Scotland for road and bridge restrictions and weather disruption. An optional Mallaig–Armadale ferry requires CalMac timetable, vehicle capacity and space confirmation. Crossing costs and arrangements must be agreed in writing before booking; a request alone does not secure a sailing.

What we move to and from the island

Ask about house and flat removals, furniture, appliances, sofas, beds and boxes, including collections from the island or mainland shops. Single-track roads, long drives and limited turning space can affect vehicle suitability. Each address and load must be checked; delivery to every property is not guaranteed.

Skye removals from Glasgow, Lanarkshire and England

Skye is an island, not a single delivery point: Kyleakin, Portree, Uig and other destinations have different road distances and access. Send both postcodes for an actual itinerary. Enquiries from Glasgow, Lanarkshire and England are assessed individually, including total transport time, driver rest and any overnight stay; these pages are not scheduled departures.

Isle of Skye removals FAQ

Do you need a ferry to reach Skye?

Normally no: the road option uses the toll-free Skye Bridge, subject to road and weather restrictions. Optional ferries need operator timetable, vehicle and space checks, with costs agreed in the written quote. Availability is not guaranteed.

Which parts of Skye do you cover?

Portree, Broadford, Kyleakin, Dunvegan, Uig, Staffin, Sleat and the rest of the island — send the postcode and we confirm access before quoting.

How much does a Skye removal cost?

It depends on the load and the collection point. Our rate card is £40 per hour for one man and van or £70 per hour for two, with the first 10 miles included and £1 per mile after that — long-distance jobs get one fixed written price before booking.

Can you collect from England and deliver to Skye?

Yes, subject to route and availability confirmation. Tell us the collection postcode and dates and we will plan the run, including an overnight split where needed.
