    • Clearly stated that no businesses can be run from a garage
    • Introduced a four weeks’ notice period for terminating a tenancy
    • Use of garages by other parties has also been updated in line with the grant approvals process.
    • We’ve improved the way we promote the use of garages, installing notices at all garage sites, giving customers details of how to contact us if they are interested in renting a garage.
