Rootes75 22 Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Good luck with that. We are in the position where we need bigger storage, its just so hard to find these days. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
andym 30 Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 It's very difficult. Even finding a friendly farmer is awkward because these days they are worried about someone discovering that a barn isn't being used for agricultural purposes. Ditto if you buy an existing barn you'd have to seek a change of planning permission. The only real alternative is an industrial unit and they don't come cheap!

67burwood 27 Posted March 16 Author Share Posted March 16 Your right Andy, I’ve had a look at industrial units that do car storage and it’s just too expensive. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
andym 30 Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 I haven't tried the sums to see if it's practical, but I had wondered about a group of owners getting together and either renting or buying a large unit outright. Andy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
67burwood 27 Posted March 17 Author Share Posted March 17 A group rent would be ideal but finding a location to suit all could be tricky. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rootes75 22 Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 We rent a single industrial unit on a converted farm, access and security are great but its not big enough. There are plenty of farms that now do caravan storage round here but they dont allow you to use them as workshops. There are issues with going in with others too, even friends fall out. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
