Abandoned Vehicle Removal.

Abandoned vehicles on your land are more than an eyesore – they expose you to fines of up to £1,000, leave you liable for towing and disposal costs, and can sit unresolved for weeks while registered owners remain untraceable.

Strikes Property Services works with commercial landlords, property managers, and landowners across England and Wales to clear land legally and without delay. We serve formal notices, document every vehicle, and establish the legal grounds for removal and disposal swiftly and within strict legal frameworks.

Our service includes:

  • Site attendance and vehicle inspection
  • Formal notice serving on all identified vehicles
  • Photographic evidence collection
  • DVLA checks and owner tracing
  • Liaison with vehicle recovery contractors
  • Legal documentation for disposal
  • Body camera recording throughout

Strikes Abandoned Vehicle Removal process..

1. Instruction and site assessment:

You instruct Strikes and provide details of the vehicles and location. We assess the situation and confirm the appropriate legal route for notice serving and removal.

2. Agent attendance and notice serving:

One of our enforcement agents attends your site, inspects and photographs each vehicle, and affixes formal legal notices requiring owners to remove their vehicles by a specified deadline.

3. DVLA checks and owner tracing:

Where required, we carry out DVLA checks to identify registered keepers and support the legal process for vehicles where ownership is unclear.

4. Deadline monitoring and documentation:

We track the notice expiry period and provide you with full documentation — photographic evidence, notice records, and agent reports — establishing the legal grounds for disposal.

5. Removal and disposal:

Once the notice period expires, we coordinate with approved recovery contractors to remove and dispose of any remaining vehicles, with costs rechargeable to registered owners where applicable.
