Yes do this! I got a permit, I posted the signs 5 days in advance, so people had plenty of time to see that there wasn’t parking ok the specific day/time. I mounted the signs to big traffic cones and had 6-7 signs spanning about 70 feet of curb for a 26 foot truck. I didn’t have any issues on the day of!
Block off an area of the street that is about twice as long as the moving truck so they have space to pull in, also align it so that the back of their truck is close to your front door.
I work right by there and have parked in that garage late at night many times with absolutely no issues. That area is pretty safe in general from my experiences. Getting to the highway once you’re in your car is also pretty quick, just a few turns and you shouldnt be driving through any bad areas to get there
Hmmm that’s a good idea too! I haven’t looked in that area yet. I’ll add it to my list.
My initial thought is that it would be important to have reserved parking, but I was hoping that maybe people in the city are used to the parking situation so they don’t really mind.. I personally would probably be annoyed if it wasn’t within walking distance
