They also make your premises look un-professional. Usually, if you ignore this kind of problem, it will not go away, leaving you with a never-ending problem. The process to remove them can be complex. Whether the vehicle is on the public highway or on private land, a strict process must be followed to have it removed legally.

What constitutes an abandoned vehicle?  Under the Refuse Disposal (Amenity) Act of1978, a vehicle can only be considered to be abandoned, if it has been classified as such by an authorised officer of your local authority.  And it doesn’t just mean a car. It can also be a trailer, or parts of either a car or a trailer, and also anything that is contained within them.  

Problems that can be caused by abandonedvehicles:      
They are unsightly.
They can prevent and interfere with your lawful activities.
They can have a negative effect on the value of your property and your reputation.
They can be as a result of or lead to even more crime.
There is a risk of injury from vehicles left in a dangerous condition. 
They can leak dangerous fluids, such as fuel and oil.
If not dealt with effectively, they can remain abandoned indefinitely, causing ongoing problems.

One of the main issues in dealing with abandoned vehicles, is that they can only be removed immediately if they are deemed by the authorities to be harmful to the general public or the environment. Our Enforcement Officers are trained and accredited in carrying out the risk assessments and due diligence that is required to lawfully remove vehicles.
