Rent-a-drive

I discovered today that there are people willing to rent out your driveway to park on whilst at work.
Anyone here considered it? Don't suppose it would come under the same tax break as the rent a room scheme would it? :confused:
There are even agents that put together drive owners and car owners.


Bizzare but also make sense.

    A very large company near us have an arrangement with people to rent their drives. A friend rents out hers. They had put flyers through peoples doors asking them if they'd be prepared to do so.
    If she comes back during the day, or has a day off she has to use one of her visitors tickets though.

    If you phone any company near you who might be running such a scheme I'm sure they'd welcome your drive, good luck!

    Don't need to rent mine out but couldn't anyway. Don't think the MOD would be keen, lol!
