The Challenge — Parking in Market Harborough
Non-Standard Items — Ladder and Heavy Ceramic Planters
Parking in Market Harborough can be notoriously difficult for removal vehicles.
The customer managed to reserve a space outside the property using bins, but it was only just large enough for our medium-wheelbase Vauxhall Movano.
A larger 3.5 tonne Luton or 7.5 tonne removal truck would have been forced to park on the opposite side of the road, significantly increasing the carry distance for every item and adding unnecessary time and cost to the job.
Our van's compact footprint allowed us to reverse directly to the threshold

Two items on this job required specialist solutions. The customer had a very long extension ladder which they assumed would need to be left behind — we secured it safely to our external roof bars, eliminating the problem entirely.
A collection of large, heavy ceramic plant pots presented a separate challenge. We used our Wolfcraft TS1500 sack truck, which features a curved backplate designed for round objects, allowing us to move the heavy planters without risk of breakage or injury.

A Well-Prepared Customer on a 3-Storey Move
The customer had dismantled all furniture and moved items to the ground floor in advance — a significant factor in keeping a 3-storey move running efficiently.
This level of preparation allowed us to focus entirely on the high-skill aspects of the job: secure stacking, technical maneuvering, and efficient loading. Everything arrived safely with no damage.
