ARE YOU FACING A CHARLTON POLICE IMPOUNDED VEHICLE RECOVERY? MAYBE, WE CAN HELP!
Charlton Police Pound Car Recovery
Can I use a month-by-month policy to get a vehicle or motorcycle out of the Charlton Police Pound?
The answer is yes; they should accept it. A month-by-month policy is the same as a standard annual policy, except that it is renewable each month rather than being contracted to last for an entire year. This is entirely different from short-term motors insurance policies, which only last between one day and 30 days, cannot be extended for longer periods and are not acceptable for this purpose.
Every year many people take along friends with car insurance entitles them to drive any vehicle that does not belong to them. Still, almost invariably, there is a condition on these policies which states that they cannot be used for getting vehicles out of police pounds on behalf of other people; you must contact the car yourself, using your insurance. If you cannot do this, Charlton Police Pound Car Recovery Service can assist you. We can safely recover any vehicle, including Cars, vans, motorcycles, caravans and Trucks.

Charlton Police Pound Car Recovery can collect your vehicle for you. To reclaim a vehicle, you must present payment and original versions of your driving licence, insurance, and proof of entitlement. Anyone collecting the vehicle on your behalf must give the amount and a letter of authority authorising them to collect on your behalf, a driving licence, proof of entitlement, and valid insurance that permits them to drive the vehicle. Charlton Police Pound, Car Recovery policy allows us to recover and transport third-party vehicles on behalf of their owners from a police or local authority pound.
If your vehicle:
- has been issued with a PG9 (Prohibition Notice) because it is not roadworthy (if it cannot be driven, it must be removed on a recovery vehicle)
- has been taken off the road for not having a valid MOT or insurance
- has been impounded due to a crime involving it or taken by Police after an accident or collision

Charlton Car Impound Charges
If your vehicle was seized under Section 165A of the Road Traffic Act after being driven without valid insurance or not in accordance with a driving licence, please go to the page with the title, ‘Reclaiming a Seized Vehicle’.
The driver of a seized vehicle will normally have received a Form 3708 seizure notice.
This section only applies if your vehicle was brought to the pound for other reasons.
For example, it may be:
- Stolen
- Involved in a collision
- Illegally parked
- Involved in crime
- Driven in an anti-social manner
- Causing an obstruction or danger
- Unlawfully abandoned.
If your vehicle has been issued with a PG9 (Prohibition Notice) or the pound staff deem it unroadworthy, you will be required to arrange recovery at your own expense.
Disclaiming a vehicle
If you want to reclaim your vehicle from the pound, you should attend with proof of identity and ownership, pay any statutory charges and disclaim all rights to it. The car will be disposed of immediately, and you will not be liable for additional storage or disposal charges.
IMPORTANT – DISPOSAL CHARGE
If your vehicle was removed to be pounded under statutory powers (abandoned, accident damaged, causing an obstruction), even if you choose not to reclaim it, you must still attend the police pound to prove ownership and pay the statutory disposal charge. You will also be asked to sign a disclaimer for the vehicle. After this, you will not be liable for any further costs related to the removal and storage of the car. You are still responsible for any Penalty Charge Notice which may have been issued.
The disposal charges are:
- Car and light van – £75
- Two-wheeled vehicle – £50
How much can the police charge?
The maximum charges for removals vary according to the size and condition of the vehicle.3 for a vehicle less than 3.5 tonnes (i.e. a car or a light van), the charges are as follows:
- Vehicle on the road, upright and not substantially damaged or any two-wheeled vehicle, whatever its condition or position on or off the road – £192
- Vehicle, excluding a two-wheeled car, off-road, upright and not substantially damaged – £200
- Vehicle, excluding a two-wheeled car, on the road but either not upright or substantially damaged or both – £320
- The vehicle, excluding a two-wheeled, off-road but either not upright or substantially damaged or both – £300.
- Heavier vehicles cost more.
- Storage costs £26 per day for a motorbike, £26 per day for cars and more for vehicles over 3.5 tonnes.
- Disposal of the vehicle costs £50 for a motorbike, £75 for a car and, again, more for heavier vehicles.
