Paying rent on your garage
If you are interested in renting a garage or garage site, you should contact the Area Housing Office responsible for that area.
What if happens if I owe rent on my garage?
If you fall behind with your garage rent, you will be ‘in arrears’. You need to contact us straight away if you fall behind with payments.
If you have a council house/flat you will be asked to pay your garage rent at the same time as your house/flat rent.
Telephone the North Call Centre on 0114 293 0000 or the South Call Centre on 0114 205 3333.
Or write to:
Income Management Unit
Sheffield Homes,
PO BOX 483
M33 0DH.
Or call in at any Area Housing Office or First Point.
We will attempt to contact you if you fail to make payments or do not get in touch with your Area Housing Office to discuss your arrears.
Following this, if no contact or payment is made, a ‘Notice to Quit’ will be issued, advising you that we are ending your right to occupy the garage or site.

Notice to Quit
A Notice to Quit will give you 14 days to leave the garage or site. After this period, your right to use the garage or site will come to an end - and the garage and its contents will be taken into our possession.
Council tenants
If you are a council tenant, any rent payment you make will always be credited to the account for your home first. Any shortfall in payments could then result in garage arrears and may lead to a Notice to Quit being issued for the garage.
