Capital Cargo London: Parking, What to do!
Parking in London
In order for us to park outside your home or office it is advisable for you to arrange any necessary permits or waivers for the suspension of parking bays. These can be arranged in advance by calling the Parking Division of the relevant borough councils, usually the day before your move. You will need the licence number of the vehicle when you arrange the permit, which we will provide you with when your booking is made. The Parking Division should then issue you with a reference number; pass this number, and the name of the person/s with whom you arranged the permit, on to your driver. We realise that this seems a complicated process, but this information will help us appeal against any Penalty Charge Notices issued in error (yes, it does happen). Unfortunately, if you do not arrange a parking waiver or permit in advance, and our driver incurs a PCN, we will have to pass this cost on to you. The current minimum fine for a PCN is £50.
Loading & Unloading
There are specific circumstances under which a vehicle may load or unload
on a yellow line.
A vehicle may load or unload on a yellow line for an unlimited period before
11am and for a maximum of 20 minutes afterwards, except where white signs
and yellow kerb markings indicate 'no loading'.
- Loading must be continuous
- The vehicle must not be left unattended
- The vehicle must move on instruction from the police or a parking attendant
