    Company Name dislayed at home

    Hi guys & gals,

    I know that thre is a requirement to display your company name (if you are a ltd company) at your registered address, but how many of you actually stick a company name plate on your front door if you have created a ltd company and gave your home address as your company address?

    On the same grounds, how many of you inform your insurance company that you have a business registered at the address (even if you are contracing so only 'working from home' 1 day a week, if ever)?

    And I also assume you are all keeping to the goverment rules and have a no smoking sign on the front door of your house (as it is a registered business address)

        My front hallway looks like a bill posters nightmare.
        Cert of incorporation 2
        Environmental waste licences 2
        HGV operators License 1
        Environmental WEEEE Cert 1
        Nothing outside though
        Don't want the neighbours knowing my business.
        My office itself is not my reg place of business but I have everything from HMRC etc sent there.
        I run most of the IT side from home so have a lot of expensive equipment here, so had to inform the insurance to ensure cover. bumped my contents ins up a measly few quid! not worth worrying about.

          It doesn't have to be displayed outside. I find the loo wall is a suitable place to hang such things....

            Either you have a fecking huge house or the op center is somewhere else.

            Are you like the dude down the road with an artic unit parked on his drive.

                  Fire? that's what insurance is for

                  Health and safety? that's for the main office and on site
