About these terms

These terms explain how impoundedcarinsurance.co.uk should be used. The site is run by Prudent Plus Limited. By browsing or using any part of the website, you agree to these terms in full. If you do not accept them, please stop using the site.

Purpose of the website

The site provides general information about impounded vehicles, release procedures and insurance considerations. It is intended to help visitors understand the broad processes involved. It does not provide legal, financial or professional advice, and it must not be used as a sole source of guidance for dealing with any impound situation.

Variation between different pounds

Police and council pounds across the UK operate with their own rules, time limits, paperwork requirements and release conditions. These differences can be significant. Some allow certain types of road release, others do not. Some ask for tax deposits, others rely on recovery firms. Storage periods, operating hours and identification rules also vary.

Because of this, any information on this site should be treated as a broad outline only. We cannot guarantee that any description, timeframe, fee, process or example on this website reflects the rules of the pound handling your vehicle. You must check directly with the authority involved before taking any action.

Accuracy of information

We make reasonable efforts to keep the information on this site useful and up to date. However, procedures can change at short notice, and different authorities interpret their powers differently. As a result, we do not guarantee that the information on the site is accurate, complete or applicable to your situation.

The content is provided on an information-only basis. You are responsible for verifying any details with the appropriate pound, authority, insurer or adviser before relying on them.

• the accuracy of any information on this website

• missed deadlines, fees, penalties or disposal processes triggered by user actions or inaction

You use the website entirely at your own risk. It is your responsibility to confirm the rules that apply to your specific vehicle and to take appropriate steps based on direct information from the pound or authority concerned.

The site may describe general insurance options, impound procedures or third-party services. These references are provided for general context only. If you choose to use a third-party provider or form, you do so directly with them.
