Where do I go to find out about lock ups and garages? the housing assoc or the council?

paisley want 25 quid a year per plot, but the last tennants have tpo remove the garage before you can take it Mad Its also only wooden garages as well.

So I'd need to get the plot then build a garage on it!

Stu's end he pays 16 quid a year for the concrete garage off the council, but thats to far away.

I just need somewhere to finish off the filling and let the carpet dry out!

Even a ally job would collapse with the wind as it is.

over 7 foot wide on the 20 footer. All I need to do is drive it in and then work on the rear C pillar. Don't need lots of smace just enough to be out the weather!

Thing is the other places I went to said I will have problems with petrol etc etc, I dunno if draining it would be enough.

Also I need to drive by helen street to get there!
