Man and Van in Bootle

The terraces around Bootle have the steep staircases and narrow frontages you would expect, and the streets do not leave much room for a large van. We take furniture apart where the stairs insist on it and settle the closest legal stopping point before we arrive.

The roads near The Strand and the docks carry heavy traffic through the day, so we time moves to keep the van clear of the slowest stretches and pick a stopping point off the main road where we can. That keeps the carry short and the move ticking along.
