Measure the complete carrying route for a Carlton move

For a Carlton man and van booking, check how the largest item will travel from its room to the vehicle. A clear front doorway does not establish whether it will pass the landing, turn at the stairs or fit through the receiving entrance.

Record turns and temporary obstructions

Measure furniture in its moving configuration and photograph the tightest turns. Include removable legs, doors or sections only when someone has agreed to prepare them. Keep shared passages available for other residents. If a rear route looks easier, check its gates, surface and permission rather than treating it as a guaranteed alternative.

Local arrangements to check

Check the Nottinghamshire street restriction and the actual loading route. A car-park ticket or building access agreement does not establish permission on the road. Arnold, Carlton and Beeston use Nottinghamshire County on-street arrangements, not Nottingham City’s permit process. Read Nottinghamshire parking enforcement and dispensations for the current instructions.

Apply this to your address

For Carlton, use the county service for on-street restrictions; a Gedling or private car-park arrangement is different. Check both the stop and the entrance instead of applying Nottingham City’s process.

Before you confirm the move

  1. Measure the largest item.
  2. Check turns and gates.
  3. Agree preparation before collection.
