I have posted this in the lounge as at this moment in time I am not looking for anyone to take on the work

I intend to be doing during the summer..


I will be having a new kitchen fitted with much of the work being carried out by myself..


I need two new windows and patio doors fitted. The kitchen ceiling renewed.. and new lighting installed..


An on suite and bathroom stud partioning rearranged involving plumbing drainage .. electrics ..

My on-suite is strangely further away from my bed that the main bathroom. Removing the on suite and rearranging

the layout could result in an extra small bedroom..


Most carpets removed and Wooden Flooring laid..


Now .. My problem is my house is fully furnished and I am looking for someone who can Temp. remove and offer short term storage of furniture while this work is carried out..


Can anyone reccommend anyone who who provides this service and is reliable..

a number of removal companies offer a short term storage solution (just google it - I put a link below for one) but I cannot vouch for reliability. I suppose their reputation is at stake and they would be responsible for any damage, just as they would if they were moving your things to a new property.

That would be good.. How many units are you looking for. I have many wall/floor units in reasonable condition.

I'm not sure when I will be ready as I need to arrange for my ceiling to be sorted..


Perhaps you come and have a look and see what you might want..

    • Wow I had no idea they give you 5% in perfume for your accommodation. You're right, I need to travel more. 
    • Do none of you go abroad.  Tourist taxes are really common in continental Europe and do vary a lot city by city. They are collected by the hotels/rental apartments. They are usually a  tiny part of your holiday costs.  In Narbonne recently we paid €1.30 per person per night.  The next town we went to charge 80 cents per person per night. By comparison Cologne is 5% of your accomodation.
    • Hey Sue, I was wrong - I don't think it would just be for foreign tourists. So yeah I assume that, if someone lives in Lewisham and wants to say the night in southwark, they'd pay a levy.  The hotels wouldn't need to vet anyone's address or passports - the levy is automatically added on top of the bill by every hotel / BnB / hostel and passed on to Southwark. So basically, you're paying an extra two quid a night, or whatever, to stay in this borough.  It's a great way to drive footfall... to the other London boroughs.  https://www.ukpropertyaccountants.co.uk/uk-tourist-tax-exploring-the-rise-of-visitor-levies-and-foreign-property-charges/
    • Pretty much, Sue, yeah. It's the perennial, knotty problem of imposing a tax and balancing that with the cost of collecting it.  The famous one was the dog licence - I think it was 37 1/2 pence when it was abolished, but the revenue didn't' come close to covering the administration costs. As much I'd love to have a Stasi patrolling the South Bank, looking for mullet haircuts, unshaven armpits, overly expressive hand movements and red Kicker shoes, I'm afraid your modern Continental is almost indistinguishable from your modern Londoner. That's Schengen for you. So you couldn't justify it from an ROI point of view, really. This scheme seems a pretty good idea, overall. It's not perfect, but it's cheap to implement and takes some tax burden off Southwark residents.   'The Man' has got wise to this. It's got bad juju now. If you're looking to rinse medium to large amounts of small denomination notes, there are far better ways. Please drop me a direct message if you'd like to discuss this matter further.   Kind Regards  Dave
