Now thats a tough decision to make, do the right thing or do the best thing and just do it anyway. Not sure how many loads of concrete you need but if it is just one or two go ahead.

That's a big shed coming up . . .

First load will wake the neighbours up; second load will annoy them; third load will break the pavement probably and have the neighbours hopping around figuring out who they can complain to; and the last load will be the final straw, in more ways than one!? But, being a Saturday, there is minimal chance of council bureaucrats being at work or in a position to bother you until it's too late for them to stop the pour. :whistle:

Bugger 'em, go for it whole hog!! :blink:

Bring the four loads at the same time, too late once they’re in.

"It's easier to ask forgiveness than it is to get permission"

Besides, if you have council permission to build the Shed, how else are you gunna get the Concrete onsite??

Because those that matter...
don't mind...
And those that mind....
don't matter." -

Think about a boom pump, although it sounds like it might be too far to reach?
Gives you an extra man too.

As Swishy says hire a footpath crossover, or if you have enough solid timber, just lay good solid planks across the footpath until the last truck has left. Saves any possible grief from Council and saves you repairing their footpath.

I have my shoulder to the wheel,
my nose to the grindstone,
I've put my best foot forward,
I've put my back into it,
I'm gritting my teeth,

Now I find I can't do any work in this position!
