All fields are required except pickup notes.
Start with the car you want removed
Send the year, make and model with an honest description of its condition. Mention damage, missing parts or a fault you know about. If the car has sat unused, explain how long and whether you have checked it. You can choose “Unsure” if you do not know whether it starts or moves.
Tell the team if someone else owns the car. Removal requires the owner or a representative with authority to release it, even if the vehicle occupies your parking space.
Describe access to the parking space
Use the location where the vehicle sits, which may differ from your home address. Mention gates, garage entrances or cars blocking the route. If you need permission to access a shared parking area, discuss that before agreeing to collection. Give any preferred dates as requests and wait for the team to confirm a suitable time.
Agree on the details before collection
Confirm any offer, collection charge and payment arrangements before accepting. Ask about the required documents and licence plates. Check the trunk and interior for belongings, and review stored personal data if the car has connected features. Call 1-855-549-4466 if you would rather explain the car and access by phone.
Plan how to clear the parking space
- Identify the exact car if you have several vehicles at the pickup address.
- Agree with other household members which belongings or accessories to keep.
- Tell the team about a move-out date or another deadline for access to the property.
- Choose a contact who can open the parking area and respond to collection questions.
- Wait for a confirmed pickup time before arranging another use for the occupied space.
Questions before collection
Can I request removal of a car that runs?
Yes. Describe its running condition and known faults. The team will review the details before confirming an offer and collection.
Does submitting the form book a pickup?
No. The form starts an enquiry. The team needs to confirm the vehicle, access, terms and a suitable collection time with you.
Can you remove someone else's unwanted car?
Collection requires the owner's authorization. This service does not provide parking enforcement or removal based on a vehicle's appearance or length of time parked.
What if I decide to keep the car after requesting a quote?
Tell the team that you no longer want to proceed. If you have accepted an offer or confirmed a collection, check the agreed cancellation terms before changing the arrangements.
Check your pickup location
Find your municipality and share the location where the vehicle is parked.
