Garages

The City Council has almost 2000 lock up garages throughout the district available for rent by existing Council tenants or private individuals.

As with other dwellings, there is high demand for garages in most areas. Applicants can specify up to three areas on application and garages becoming vacant will normally be offered to the longest waiting applicant for the area.

After submitting your application you will not be contacted until there is a suitable garage available for you.

  • How to apply for a garage

    Garages available (9kb) 

    • Complete an online Garage Application Form
    • Once you have completed an application you will be notified once there is a garage available for you. Depending on the area you wish, you will be added to the waiting list and there may be quite some time before we contact you. 
    • When a garage can be offered to you, we will contact you.

    Please note: Garage licences are not issued in joint names and therefore the person who is named on the garage application will be expected to the sign up appointment to receive the garage keys.
