How to get your car or van out of the compound

To get a seized vehicle out of a compound you will need a minimum of 30 days specialist cover. One day or a few days cover will not be accepted by the compound.

A standard car or van insurance policy would not provide cover. Only a specialist policy will be needed.

Proof of insurance

We will provide the certificate of insurance and any necessary documentation relating to the specialist compound release insurance. These can be emailed you or printed and posted depending on what you decide.

Proving Identity

You will need to prove you are who you say you are.

Proving You Own the Car or Van

The V5 is the document for the vehicle that confirms the registered keeper. This should match with proof of your address and that should satisfy.

MOT

You will need to show an MOT certificate if the vehicle is over three years old. If the MOT has run out, you may need proof of a pre-booked test.

Act Soon

You will need to act soon as fees will rack up for everyday your car or van is impounded. If you fail to reclaim or cannot provide the correct documentation and insurance your vehicle could be crushed.

It’s important to act quickly as you will likely be charged a fee for every day your vehicle is impounded on-top of the overall release fee. If after 14 days you fail to reclaim your vehicle or show satisfactory documentation it may be crushed.

I May Not be The Registered Keeper?

The registered keeper may well have to attend in person and deal with the requests from the compound. There may be valid reasons why the registered keeper may not have to be there in person, proof would be required to back up the reason, for example a medical problem.

Why Else Would My Car or Van Be Seized?

The authority’s have the power to seize vehicles and here are some examples:

• A vehicle is broken-down or abandoned/li>
• Parked in a dangerous manner or illegally obstructing passage
• Driven in a manner that could cause distress, harassment or being carless.
• Driving without insurance and or not have a driving licence
