Brisbane Storage

If you’ve got some spare space around your home or business that you’re not using — from space to park a car, to an empty corner of your garage  — SpaceOut can help you rent that space out as storage.

The underlying concept behind SpaceOut is that traditional self storage facilities are expensive and not always convenient. SpaceOut links people with unused (wasted) space in their own homes and businesses to people who need space.

If you’re concerned about the security of using the extra space in someone’s garage to store your stuff, SpaceOut encourages all users to draw up a legal rental agreement – and provides a sample on their website for you to base your own customised agreement on.

SpaceOut is not involved in negotiation of the agreement or payment – The Space Owner and Renter are able to organise all that themselves – in the best way to suit them both.

Currently the majority of listings appear to be Brisbane based (where SpaceOut originated) – with a scattering of other listings throughout Australia.

Would you consider signing a lease to rent out space in a residence instead of a commercial storage facility? What do you think are the the Pros and Cons of this type of service?

tring to replace the tire under the van, but can't get enough slack in cable to hook the tire. don't want to break anything and have spun the nut in the cargo area as far to the left as it will go
dont know how they got it off, was not at the shop when it was removed. wife says they put the van on a lift. should not have to pick the tire up off the ground to hook it.

On the caravan you will have to lift the tire to get it hooked. In my family we have had 3 different caravans( a 94', a98' and a 05') and they were all the same way. It would be nice if you didn't have to like on some other vehicles but we all know that car designers aren't always thinking of "us".

I have been contemplating a boat for my family to venue on during the summer months. Being that I've never owned a boat, I want to know what I should consider in terms of seasonal maintenance, storage, licensing, transporting, etc. What do I have to know to care for my boat?
I have a truck. I just want to know what would the actual boat require. What does winterizing consist of, what is the average cost for that? Cartop?I don't know what that is? TRailer…I can get that. Financing…not a problem. Money down yes (10,000). Licensing costs??? Maintenance, seasonal, tune ups…what?cost?

Well, here's some general info to start. This is all dependent on the style of boat that you get, but here are basic tips:
1: seasonal maintenance: if you live in a cold weather climate, then you have to winterize your boat. Basically, have the freshwater drinking lines blown out and put antifreeze in there. Same with the head (toilet) if you have one. Also, figure on an oil change a year. Price depends if you have an outboard or an I/O engine (inboard/outboard). Budget about $500/year for this. Sometimes you knick a prop, need some new lines, etc.

Storage – Most places charge you by the foot. You'll have to call around on that, as prices vary, but if you are talking a ski boat, figure about $150/ month.

Licensing: You have to get tags for your boat, just like you do for a car. Except they are good for a few years. Each state has different prices for this and it really depends where you live. Call you local Department of motor vehicles – they can give you a price (just pick a boat make/model/year that you are thinking about)

Insurance – again this depends where you live and the size/year/type of boat. Figure about $500 – $1200 a year for this, too. The larger the boat, the more expensive it is. Plus it depends where you live.

Gas: ski boats burn about 8 – 10 gallons an hour . It depends on how fast you run them. That's just an average. So figure that if you run it for four hours, you'll burn about 40 gallons of gas, which will cost you about $100 – $125 bucks.

Trailer – Don't skimp on the trailer! Get one with good brakes and an electric winch (depending on the size of your boat) you will be happy at the end of a long day when you are tired out and want to go home that you can easily transport your boat back.

Boat care – Like a car, keep your boat clean, do the regularly scheduled maintenace, make sure that battery (ies) are good.

The best thing to do is to take a boating class. the US Power Squadron in your area teaches these, along with the Coast Guard Auxilliary. These people live for this!

Boating is alot of fun, but there are some things that you need to learn first – how to read charts, rules of the road, etc. A boating class will introduce you to other new boaters, too. Plus if your kids are a bit older, they can also take the class and be part of the process.

Go to a few boat shows in the area. Make a list of features that you want on your boat. You may want to consider a head (toilet) if you have kids, or you'll be taking them back to shore frequently. That gets old quick! Look for a boat with adequate storage, and if buying used, a well maintained boat. You can have a boat surveyed (much like a house inspection) before you buy it. You can save much money if you get a boat that is well taken care of and only a few years old.

Best of luck, I hope this points you in the right direction. I highly recommend the power squadron or coast guard auxilliary as a resource, they can give you some great direction. These are volunteer organizations and are a great resource!

If you let your car sit for about 6 to 8 months without driving it, what happens? And what can you do when you start driving it again to help the car out.

Depending on if the car is fuel injected or carbureted, you need to drain the remaining fuel from the tank and carburetor. Gasoline left sitting this long will turn into "varnish" and gum up your fuel system. Also change the engine oil when you start using the car again. Ideally you could have someone start the car every few days to keep the bearings lubricated and avoid water condensation. Also moving it around will help keep the tires from developing flat spots. If this option isnt available then drain the fuel, and put the car on blocks.

I rent rooms as residential rental units to people on their own individual leases per room who share kitchen and living room. I have my own private storage room and bathroom there. I have always entered into the common areas to access my above room whenever I choose. Do I have to give all tenants 24 hour notice B4 entering?

No, you do not have to give any notice at all, just do not enter their little domains.
