We’ve cleared more than 1,000 abandoned vehicles from the streets and housing estates.
This vehicle was abandoned with no tax, MOT, insurance or registered owner.
The operation, which began in September last year, has seen 1,000 vehicles towed away in the first 7 months.
Most of the these were lifted from public roads, with around 125 removed from council housing estates and 2 from private land. In previous years, the council typically removed up to 400 abandoned vehicles across an entire year.
The vehicles that have been seized include a Maserati, Rolls Royce, Jaguar and several Audis.
Work is ongoing, with teams continuing to remove abandoned and untaxed vehicles from across the borough.
So nice, we had to do it twice.

Caught on Ealing Council CCTV - a man from South West London was filmed dumping boxes from his car onto the pavement in Ealing 📦 When the council issued him a fine, he refused to pay. So they took him to court.
On 6 March 2026 he pleaded guilty and was ordered to pay £616 in fines and costs. His excuse? He told the court he left the boxes on the pavement because he was worried his car would be hit by a bus.
The council pointed out he then sat in his car at the same spot for another 10 minutes after dumping them 😭
If you see fly-tipping in your area, you can report it directly to Ealing Council via their website or app.
