Removing abandoned vehicles from roads is a service provided Carmarthenshire County Council.

A vehicle is classified as abandoned:

• If it has not been moved for a significant period of time
• the Vehicle Excise Duty (Road Tax) has expired.
• the owner or the keeper cannot be identified, or fails to respond to a legal notice

A vehicle cannot be regarded as abandoned only because of its condition or appearance and/or the fact that it has not been moved for some weeks.

To remove and dispose of a vehicle of which the owner has been identified, and who has confirmed responsibility for the vehicle, would be regarded as theft of private property.

You can now report an abandoned vehicle online by completing our online form.
