How should I prepare for moving day in Kelham Island?

Start with the inventory, keys and access arrangements, then book the vehicle and loading help for that plan. Keep one written checklist covering both addresses so that permission, building access and the arrival time agree.

Local information to check

Raise any suspension enquiry early: Sheffield publishes a 14-day application notice. Confirm acceptance and the permitted use, then keep an alternative access plan for an obstructed bay. Read Sheffield parking bay suspension guidance for the current details.

A practical order for preparing the move

  • Before booking: list the load, measure awkward items and check who controls access at both addresses.
  • Once the date is known: arrange any street permission and building loading or lift slot; allow for the authority's notice period.
  • Before arrival: pack and label the load, confirm keys and contact details, and tell the booking team about any changed access or items.
