Use the public_path() helper, not url():

->move(public_path('src/img/'.$imageName));

In my case issue was little bit different. I am using laravel 5.5. If i will use below code on my local system, then its work properly

$destinationPath = public_path('images\post');
$image->move($destinationPath, $inputimg);

But on production same above code throwing error. Unable to create the "/var/www/mycar/public/images\post" directory

If someone have same issue then change 'images\post' to 'images/post'
