What access details should I check for a removal in South Nottingham?

Follow the complete path from the intended vehicle position to the largest items. Measure door openings, stair turns and lifts, and confirm who controls shared entrances. The property type alone does not tell the team what will fit or where it can load.

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. Confirm which council controls the actual street; the county and city services are separate. Read Nottinghamshire parking enforcement and dispensations for the current instructions.

Apply this to your address

Check whether the loading location is within Nottingham City or Nottinghamshire County before arranging permission. Private and district car parks need their operator’s agreement as well as a workable route to the property. See Nottingham City permit services.

Make an access record for both addresses

  1. Record the lawful stopping position, carrying distance, steps and entrance used.
  2. Measure awkward items against the narrowest door, corridor, stair turn or lift opening.
  3. Confirm lift reservations, keys and any building loading slot with the responsible person.

Send photographs and measurements before the move if an item may not pass. Discuss preparation or a different handling plan with the team; do not wait until arrival to discover that the planned route is unusable.
