Garage rental - how much?
winchman:
My top tip
Visit every local farm, one will have some space, it might take a few visits but once you have got it, it is cash in the pocket for the farmer.
Buy a small shipping container and lock your stuff in that.
I have two parking spaces at a local farm out side and pay £168 per year, I am on the waiting list for inside but you cant work on them there only store them.
Planning is the thing to watch, most farmers have the building down as agraculteral, so dont pay any rates.
If the council can prove you are a business you will pay commercial rates on the building, but planning can also stop you as he might not have the correct permission.
I have just lost my inside storage as some one bubbled the farmer to planning for not having consent and the land owner for subletting, as most farms are farmed by tennants.
Have you tried looking for old foke who have a garage and dont use it?, pay them rent cut the grass etc.
Once saw a telly program about a car club that rented a big building and divided it up in to small areas and each member kept there car and pile of junk in there allocated space.
