Barnet, Parked in a loading place or bay during restricted hours
without loading, Totteridge Lane

Hi everyone,
I’ve received a PCN for parking in a loading bay during
restricted hours without observed loading. The council states my
vehicle was observed for 8 minutes with no visible unloading
activity, and therefore issued the ticket.
However, I was in the process of moving heavy furniture from my
car to my new flat, which is directly across the road. As you
can imagine, moving large items like a sofa takes time—more than
8 minutes to carry into the flat and return to the car—so it's
understandable that the observer may not have seen me during
that window.
I’ve already challenged the PCN and explained the situation, but
they’ve replied saying I need to provide proof within 14 days,
such as a delivery note or invoice. The problem is that this
wasn’t a commercial delivery—it was my own furniture being moved
from my old flat, so I don’t have anything official to show.
They’ve mentioned “proof” is required, but from what I
understand, legislation doesn’t require absolute proof—but I’m
still unsure how to strengthen my appeal.
Would a shop receipt (e.g. from Dunelm, dated the same day) help
support the case? I’d really appreciate any advice on how best
to present this or what else I might include or state to improve
my chances.
Thanks in advance!

Do you have papework to show one rental ending and the new one
starting. That plus a genuine purchase receipt for the same day
should be sufficient
