Abandoned Vehicles (Dumped Cars)

Abandoned vehicles can leak dangerous fluids and attract vandalism. Plus they often end up filled with rubbish. It is our target to remove all abandoned vehicles within seven days, vehicles in poor condition will removed even earlier.

South Bedfordshire District Council is currently running an abandoned vehicle amnesty, during which you can have an unwanted vehicle collected and disposed of by the Council free of charge. This amnesty has been extended. If you have an unwanted vehicle that you would like to recycle, please call the vehicle amnesty hotline on 01582 474126.
