Manchester City Council runs the loading and permit rules here.

Most M14 van runs finish inside a working day. Floor level, lift availability and carry distance change that more than the size of the property, which is why we time the job from the survey rather than the bedroom count. Local context matters here: post-windrush settlement made moss side the centre of manchester's caribbean community; 1970s clearance rebuilt much of the housing, which is why the access varies so much between neighbouring streets.

Terraced streets give you a front door straight onto the pavement and no side access, so the van parks as close as the council allows and the crew works a short, repeated carry — which is why the survey counts doorways, not just rooms. Send a short video of the stairwell and the street and we will confirm crew size before the date is held. Booked most often on the M14 streets around Alexandra Park.

Often, yes — Manchester City Council controls loading on most M14 and M16 streets.

Pianos, safes, American fridges, gym equipment and large glass units all move, but they are quoted at survey because they need extra crew or kit. Paint, fuel, gas bottles and perishables we cannot legally carry — Hulme customers usually clear those with the same booking.
