After a nice conversation they still did not grasp its my normal motor.

So I can hook up my trailer like that car & unload as a householder?
Yes..
Does it matter what size trailer?
No

So I “could” bring in 3tonnes of garden waste on the next trip then....

You can now see the cogs turning if they have made the correct decision.
 
??? When did it become royal Sutton Coldfield ???

No I’m not going to google.

In 1528, a charter of King Henry VIII gave the town the right to be known as "The Royal Town of Sutton Coldfield" and to be governed by a warden and society. The charter was secured by Bishop John Vesey. This unreformed corporation survived until 1885, when it was replaced by a municipal borough. Although the title "Royal Town" was still used, the municipality created in 1885 was not itself a Royal borough. However, the townspeople sometimes still use its historic 'Royal' title. This was confirmed to be allowed in 2014 after a two-year campaign by a local newspaper, the Sutton Coldfield Observer, Andrew Mitchell MP, the Sutton Coldfield Civic Society and various local residents. On Thursday, 12 June 2014 government minister Greg Clark confirmed during a special adjournment debate in the House of Commons that "there is no statutory ban to the continuance of historic titles for other [non-governance] purposes" in the absence of a local governing structure using a historic name, and thus the use of the Royal title is not prohibited (although any such usage has a "lack of technical legal effect").[2][3] Following that confirmation, the newspaper renamed itself the Royal Sutton Coldfield Observer.
