    I want to put a steel container in the bottom of my rented council house
    Do I need first of all permission to put it there and do I need permission to get it brought over my house to back garden

    Many thanks

    Permission from the landlord (council)
    Then planning permission to put the container in place.

    Both separate processes and you need the letter of consent from the council in order to apply for the planning.

    Standard time frame with planning.
    3 months from the day you lodge.

    Also, you may not get permission.
    Also, you may not get permission from the landlord too (housing section).

    TBH: I cannot see the LL giving consent for a shipping container

    “I can’t pay my staff or mortgage with instagram likes”.

    Does it not depend on the size? We have a 10×10 container in our garden. It's used like a garden shed. Don't think you need planning for that. Now, a 40ft container maybe a different story.

    If you read the exemption criteria for sheds, the finish must match the main dwelling. I doubt you live in a container house :)
