What should I do about an abandoned car in Huyton?

Huyton is covered by Knowsley Council. A vehicle may count as abandoned if it appears not to be in regular use and has stayed in the same place for two weeks or more. Check its tax status on the DVLA website, then use the council's online form. Vehicles causing an obstruction or parked dangerously go to Merseyside Police on 101. If the car is your own and you no longer want it, scrapping it with a licensed ATF avoids that route: we collect for free and issue a DVLA Certificate of Destruction.
