    Hi

    As you’s probably have heard about the truck drivers from nsw going to perth through sa and vic, apparently they stopped at a couple service stations at port augusta and ceduna.

    If cases pop up from there and state locks down what would be a way to get a exemption to have second accomodation and/or other workshop in different property to main one and go there and stay there unless leaving to go to there and back to primary residence or leaving for essentials.

    What’s likely chance of cases popping up from there and state locking down as found past and future lockdowns hard because am at age where am wanting to have own space even if part time stay to start off with own kitchen bathroom and lounge area and the primary residence only has about 500m2 yard and the aunt will likely stay there whole life time and what am doing to get it is as about as close as am going to get for quite a while and just trying to do what previous generations did and make do for now.

    Am single and only have one wage so it’ll be longer because usually it takes longer if on a single wage and you need 2 normal incomes or 1 really good income however if you don’t mind waiting longer it is possible on 1.

    Find past and future lockdowns hard because only current options for a proper shed and own space generally have to close and don’t yet have anything else and trying to make do with current options until the more ideal thing comes however long it takes.

    Am waiting until am able to buy as with cost of renting it’s nearly as much as buy plus with renting you’re limited to what you can do to place and with buying you’re not and you get to choose how it’s setup and choose colours and fittings and stuff,

    Normally the minimum is 10% for a deposit but 20% or more would be better and sometimes you can get away with 5% under certain conditions and think that along with buy now pay later drives this generation of working age people to want latest and everything all at once.

    What could be done to end future lockdowns or where could you quarantine seperate to rest of household in event that the house had to quarantine because yard is only about 500m2 and it isn’t big enough to put a tiny house or large van to live in where you’s be able to quarantine seperate or not be affected.

    Due to being happy living at primary residence currently just want to most importantly get the shed trouble sorted and part time stay sorted and have latest and new gear and paint and fit outs then do rest as am able to afford

    Thanks

    People seem to think that their online orders appear out of thin air at their door....
    Or that they are transpprted by rail !
    The majority is moved via trucks.
    Citing an old bumper/bullbar sticker "Without trucks, Australia STOPS" !

    At least these guy's weren't like the furniture removalists who sparked Victoria's outbreak (didn't disclose their route and many stops initially....)

    In this case they are dedicated interstate cartage professionals who filled out their trucking logbook.

    In your proposed example it won't work !!!
    Any residence/house/complex would be treated as an infected premisis and (if you have covid) then all property occupants are to isolate for 14 days....

    Your example might work IF there is a seperate residence with seperate entry (granny flat) so they can be separated or considered two individually seperate residence.
    Otherwise "the household" will have to isolate
