Our system for council meetings is experiencing technical issues at the moment. We're working to fix it as soon as possible. Scheduled meetings will still be live streamed on our YouTube channel. Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience.

Abandoned vehicles

Before you report a vehicle

We can’t remove a vehicle just because it:

  • isn't taxed or insured
  • doesn't have an MOT
  • is getting in the way

If the vehicle’s causing an obstruction on a public road, you should report it to the Police by calling 101, or 999 if it’s an emergency.

Reporting an untaxed vehicle

You’ll need to visit the GOV.UK website to report an untaxed vehicle. Alternatively, you can call the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) on 08000 325202.
