Hey I said we shouldn't take any more stuff out there, it really was too
full.

For temporary storage:-
Kennards Homebush 2.8m x 9.5m x 3.0m $530/month
Now with the current load of computers you'll probably need a couple of
these spaces.
I'm willing to fill a bedroom at my place for a while but I've got my
bi-annual inspection from the landlord next week and they'll probably want
to check up on stuff that needs fixing too. I could stick some trash in
the shed but it leaks so ONLY trash!
I'd encourage others to maybe donate some garage space temporarily at
least although shifting stuff takes effort and money.

I'd have to get a bank cheque or have someone supply bank details for
direct deposit. Then again... I can just donate what I spent on the truck
last week ($123.00).
