Hi I can see you posted a question that I am looking for a answer 7 years later lol
& you mentioned that you have 4 different companies to do job was wondering if your happen to share that information as I am looking to do the same static caravan over my garden fence .
Also would like to heard how you got on & did you need planning permission to put in your garden.
Many thanks
Janz
If you will be buying a static from a dealer, most dealers should be able to give you links to transporters, and if it is only a fence then it will be considerably cheaper to take the fence down and put it up again afterwards instead of hiring a crane, which will come with a whole host of other requirements all by itself.
BUT -
Talk to your local council FIRST.
If the static is going in your garden as "ancillary to the house" - i.e, not a separate self-contained accommodation but as a home office/playroom/den/overflow guest room etc., etc, but whoever is using it will return to the main house for cooking/washing etc., then planning permission is not normally required, but all councils are different, especially if the house is in a conservation area. Likewise, most councils accept statics being used to live in during major renovations or building work on the main home - but again, they all vary and will have stipulations.
Talking to the council first will give you pointers about what to do, how to do it, and especially what not to do.
If you want to use it as self-contained separate accommodation, then you probably will need planning permission, but again best to find this out first before you start looking for transport.

Hi Janz,
Did you manage to get a static in your garden?
I am in a similar situation where my children from my ex do not want to visit me while my current partner at home.
After loads of thinking I have come to the same conclusion as you.
Please advise asap.
You could be best to start your own investigations - neither of the (2015&2022) OPs have been back to say how things went, and any companies that were found back in 2015 may or may not have survived the pandemic.
Councils have differing policies about statics or caravans in the garden as extra accommodations, so you best step is to start a discussion with your local planning department to find out (a) if you need planning permission, and (b) if you do, what their requirements will be.
Before contacting them, decide exactly what you need the static for - will
it be completely self contained, or will whoever uses it still use the house for kitchen, bathroom, etc (this can make a difference as far as planning goes). Also, as somebody already suggested to the OP, as it is an intermittent situation, consider a large tourer instead of a static - it will be considerably easier to dispose of when you no longer have need of it.
