Abandoned car being towed away

Abandoned Vehicles

Do you have a dumped vehicle parked outside your house or in your street?

Abandoned vehicles are dealt with by the Enviro Crime Team who are able to deal with abandoned vehicles on the public highway and certain areas of private land.

The Council endeavours to keep its streets clear of abandoned vehicles and works closely with the other agencies, DVLA, Police, Fire Brigade and local Housing Associations to achieve this.

The removal of unwanted vehicles significantly reduces car crime and car fires.

If you have a vehicle you think is abandoned complete the form giving as much detail as you can. Alternatively you may call us on 020 8303 7777.

The vehicle will be inspected and removed subject to satisfactory clearance of statutory legal checks and confirmation it is abandoned.

If a vehicle is untaxed but is being driven regularly or in good condition please report this to the DVLA Hotline on 08000 325202.

If you have a query regarding taxing or registering a vehicle or information about Statutory Off Road Notices, please visit the External LinkDVLA website.

Pick up trucks used for towing away abandoned vehicles
