Traveller evictions can be very stressful and requires expertise and a knowledge of the law to achieve results.

The law surrounding unauthorised encampments can be very complex, but in general, it is considered illegal to occupy land without the owner’s permission. In the UK, the law allows for landowners to take legal action to evict unauthorised encampments using procedures such employing Strikes Enforcement Services to serve Notice on the encampment, which require the occupiers to leave within a specified timeframe.

Traveller evictions refer to the process of removing unauthorised encampments of Gypsies and Travellers from private or public land

Traveller evictions can be contentious, as they often involve a clash between the rights of the landowner and the rights of Gypsies and Travellers to practice their traditional way of life. There have been calls for more authorised sites and better provision of services for Gypsies and Travellers to reduce the need for unauthorised encampments and subsequent evictions.

Strikes have been evicting travellers for years, and our team are expert negotiators and handlers when it comes to dealing with these intense and often hostile instructions.

This is why Strikes have set up a dedicated website just for this service. Please click the ‘traveller eviction’ tab at the top of this site for more information, or click here
