Roads, parking & transport Vehicle removal

Removal of vehicles

We operate a vehicle pound and storage area for vehicles that have been removed due to following:

  • contravening parking restrictions
  • parking in such a manner, that is is potentially dangerous and/or an obstruction to other road users
  • having no valid tax

Please note that persistent offenders and evaders of parking tickets (i.e. those with unpaid parking tickets) who continually disregard parking regulations may also have their vehicle removed.

If your vehicle has been removed contact the Vehicle Pound to get it back.

Vehicles will only be released when we are satisfied you are the owner.  Please provide:

  • log book (V5)
  • keys for the vehicle 

And 2 of the following : 

  • driving licence
  • council tax documents
  • passport
  • NI card

No other form of identification will be accepted.
