    Council reporting and the Pembrokeshire County Council pound process

    Abandoned-vehicle reports and council-pound enquiries for St Davids are handled by Pembrokeshire County Council. The council's customer-services line accepts reports under the Refuse Disposal (Amenity) Act 1978 section 3; reports are normally inspected within 24 hours and removed within seven working days if confirmed abandoned. The release fee is set by Pembrokeshire County Council and published on its website.

    For an abandoned vehicle on a public road, the council inspects and tags the vehicle, leaves it for the statutory notice period, then instructs the contracted recovery operator. The vehicle is taken to the council pound; the registered keeper is identified through the DVLA keeper register and notified of the charges in writing. Council recovery pound details for this area are to be confirmed; call the council directly on the published number for the live pound address.

    For a vehicle parked illegally (rather than abandoned) the process is shorter: the parking enforcement officer can authorise immediate removal under the Road Traffic Act 1991. Release fees and storage charges differ between the abandoned-vehicle scheme and the parking enforcement scheme; both are published on the council website.
