Loading and Unloading Definition

Loading and unloading is allowed on double and single yellow lines where there are no kerb markings indicating a ban on loading and in loading bays.

Loading and unloading is considered to be taking the items to and from the vehicle and having a delivery signed for, but does not cover packing, unpacking or assembly. Stopping to go to the toilet, for a conversation or for any other activity not involved in the actual moving or delivery of the items is also not considered part of the process.

As soon as the last item is loaded or unloaded, then the vehicle must be moved to a parking place
