Who can apply?
You do not have to be a Council tenant to rent a garage, but Council tenants will be given priority.
How much does it cost?
The amount you will pay will depend on where the garage is located or if you are a Council tenant or not. Garage rents for 2023/24 - based on the garage location - are:
- £11.30 per week for Council tenants. For non-Council tenants, or if you rent more than one garage, VAT will be included at £2.26 per week = £13.56.
- £8.21 per week for Council tenants. For non-Council tenants, or if you rent more than one garage, VAT will be included at £1.64 per week =£9.85.
PLEASE NOTE: The offer of a garage tenancy is based on condition that the weekly charge is paid by Direct Debit.
