Abandoned Vehicles

Abandoned vehicles (vehicles which are untaxed and unused) are a growing problem throughout the district. 

• Report an abandoned vehicle online

If the vehicle has no tax and this is the only thing wrong with the vehicle, you need to contact the DVLA and they will investigate further.

Disposing of your old vehicle

If you have an old car to dispose of or surrender, please don't abandon it in the street. Why not use the Council's collection service?
