Vehicle Amnesty Scheme

Vehicle Amnesty Scheme Criteria

Car

The Council runs a Vehicle Amnesty Scheme, which is intended to encourage people to surrender old cars that are rusting away in gardens and on driveways; these quickly become eyesores and are often the subject of arson attacks.  The Council will safely dispose of these vehicles free of charge.

For a vehicle to be eligible for the Vehicle Amnesty Scheme it must meet the following criteria:

  • It must be located in Hartlepool
  • It must be in a location that is accessible for the towing vehicle/crane
  • The person surrendering the vehicle must be the registered owner/keeper and be able to provide us with the log book, which we will complete and send to the DVLA
