Abandoned vehicles

A vehicle is abandoned if it is left on the road for a period of time and which appears to have no owner or a vehicle that has been left in a hazardous location.

Vehicles are abandoned for a range of reasons. If you no longer need your vehicle, please arrange for it to be recycled for future use. Council spends significant amounts of money seeking to identify owners and undertaking regulatory action every year.

The difference between No Stopping and No Parking Zones

No stopping means that you cannot stop your vehicle at all.

No parking means you can stop your vehicle for up to two minutes, provided that the driver stays within three metres of the vehicle. No parking is commonly used for passenger drop off and pick up areas such as around schools and shops.

See our No Stopping(PNG, 243KB) fact sheet for more information.
