Rent us your spare space?

Hannah from Te Puke

Hi, we are a family of four living in a Tiny House on Wheels. We are currently based in Maketu. Our children are now at Bethlehem College, and we are looking to move closer to town.
We are in the process of selling our property and buying a new one, but in the meantime a parking space is needed.

We are in the process of selling our property and buying a new one, but in the meantime a parking space is needed.
If you have a shed with power and some plumbing - we can piggyback our system off your shed / garage / packhouse.
We are happy to pay for the parking spot and services.
Our NZMCA friends have been snapped up by orchards and factories happy to have a presence there overnight to keep away the thieves and vandals.
