How loading usually works here
The most efficient stop is the one that keeps repeat carries short and legal. In Eastleigh, that often means planning around short-stay bays, resident controls and busier town-centre kerbs near the rail corridor instead of assuming the van can wait outside the entrance.
What to confirm before move day
Check the exact bay, any managed access rules and whether there is a backup stopping point if the first option is blocked. That one check often saves more time than any change to the route itself.
