Abandoned Vehicles

Abandoned Vehicle with notice affixed

Vehicles must be taxed if on the road, and have a valid SORN notice if off road. If the vehicle is currently registered on a SORN it must be parked off the Public Highway.

Alternatively if you wish for your own vehicle to be uplifted, contact the Shetland Amenity Trust on 01595 694688.


If anyone wishes to report an abandoned vehicle or has any queries please contact Environmental Health on 01595 744800 or E-mail

Officers of the Environmental Health Service may serve a statutory notice to require removal of an abandoned vehicle and this removal may be done in default and the registered keeper charged.
