one of them was empty, therefore we didn`t create double disposal. I moved within the borough. I would expect not to pay twice for the overlapping period.

Why. Council tax is payable on properties, not people (that was the Poll tax!). You have 2 properties, so 2 x CT.

The fire service will attend either property is there's a fire etc etc.

it was statutory periodic Assured Shorthold Tenancy...
Then you're lucky. hat is the exception. In a SPT, CT libility ends when you vacate - it's the only exception (that I know of).

thank you, as you mentioned above, it was empty and unoccupied.
