Abandoned Vehicles

Abandoned vehicles left on verges and streets make the streetscape look untidy and can be a safety hazard.

If you locate an abandoned vehicle, please contact Ranger Services on 9273 6000 or Report It online.

Every attempt to locate the owner(s) of an abandoned vehicle is made including liaison with the Police for registration details and stolen vehicle information. The City arranges for towing and impounding as a last resort.

If a vehicle has been abandoned on Vincent's streets or verges, and attempts to contact the owners are unsuccessful, the vehicle may be impounded.

Vehicles may be claimed by contacting the City of Vincent and supplying photographic identification in addition to proof of ownership. Collection will then need to be arranged from the City's storage contractor, Pickles Auctions (Cnr Phoenix Road & Sudlow Road, Bibra Lake). Fees apply and will be charged by Pickles Auctions before the vehicle is released.

Unclaimed Vehicles

If a vehicle is unregistered or the owner has not responded to any attempts of contact after two months, vehicles may be sold by tender/auction or disposed of by other means. REVs checks are performed on all vehicles before they are advertised for public tender/auction to ensure they are not encumbered. All disposals are advertised on pickles.com.au
