An abandoned vehicle can quickly become a significant problem for property owners and managers. It can block access, create safety concerns, detract from the appearance of your premises and lead to legal complications if not dealt with correctly.
Removing an abandoned vehicle from private land requires following the correct legal procedures before it can be lawfully removed. These requirements help protect the rights of both the landowner and the registered keeper.
Marpol Security manages the complete process, including serving the required legal notices, monitoring statutory timescales and arranging lawful vehicle removal once the notice period has expired. Throughout the process, you’ll receive clear communication and the documentation needed to confirm compliance.

A qualified Marpol enforcement agent attends the site within 48 hours to apply the required legal notice, commencing the statutory notice period.

Once the legal notice period has expired, the vehicle is removed in accordance with current legislation, leaving your land clear and accessible.

Following removal, you’ll receive confirmation that the legal process has been completed, together with the relevant documentation for your records.
