Moving day - do I need to book a space for van?

Apologies if this is a silly question ... last time I moved it all fit in back of a Ford Fiesta :)

I understand I need to sort out a space in front of my own house for moving van - if the people I am buying from are moving same day, do I need to do anything or can my van use their old space? Should I speak to eg EA about that? (I don't want to come over as asking lots of questions hence asking here 1st)

Its a tight street/double parked so I guess I would need to make some plans. thanks all

What are the parking arrangements? If it’s permit parking, you can apply to the council for a temp parking permit and bay suspension for a set period on moving day. If it’s just first come first served street parking then you have to hope for the best, really. You could ask the agent to see if the sellers would block the space with some wheelie bins or something after they depart, which is what we had to do when we moved in.

Thank you @Comptesse. Its resident permit parking on both ends (but a v crowded/double parked street for both), so I think my best bet is to contact council on both sides

thanks - I do realize that my question is pretty silly, but my brain is a sieve at the moment
