  • On busy streets in Highbury, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
  • Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around N5 are priced to the exact address.
