Abandoned vehicles

If you think a vehicle has been abandoned in your street, make a note of the main details and either phone, fax or e-mail the Parking Services Office, or report it online:-

Report an abandoned vehicle

Abandoned vehicles take up precious parking spaces and can sometimes be dangerous. It is our duty to deal with them. The more information provided about the location, registration, make, colour, the better.

Vehicles which are displaying a current tax disc and/or Hammersmith & Fulham parking permit cannot be regarded as abandoned. However, they can still be investigated if they are in a very poor or dangerous condition, for example if there is severe accident damage, or the vehicle is burnt out or badly vandalised.

Once we receive a report, our officers visit the site and assess the vehicle. 

If we consider the vehicle to be abandoned, we fix a 24 hour notice to it which gives the owner time to claim it. If the vehicle is not claimed during that period it will be removed and destroyed.

In some cases, dictated by the condition of the vehicle, a seven day notice may be sent to the owner requiring them to remove it or contact us.

Opening hours:

8.00am to 6pm, Monday to Saturday (except for bank holidays)
