CityGrip helps with police and council pound car recovery in London. Once your impounded or seized vehicle is released, we collect it from the pound and transport it to your home, garage or onward destination on insured flatbeds, from £120 with a clear price agreed first. Call 07960 200253 for help.
Having your vehicle impounded by the police (often for no insurance or no licence) or seized by the council is stressful and time-sensitive: pounds charge daily storage, so the longer it sits, the more it costs. We help you understand what the pound needs from you to release the vehicle, and once it is authorised we collect it promptly and transport it to wherever you need, especially useful if it is untaxed, uninsured or non-running and cannot legally be driven away.

Sarah P., LondonPolice & Council Pound Recovery FAQs
Can you get my car out of the police pound?
We help you understand and meet the pound's release requirements, and once the vehicle is authorised for release we collect it and transport it to wherever you need. You will normally need to settle the pound's own release and storage fees with them directly.
How much does pound car recovery cost?
Local collection and delivery from the pound starts from £120, and long distance is priced per mile. We agree the transport price before we collect.
Can you collect an untaxed or uninsured car from the pound?
Yes. Because we transport it on an insured flatbed rather than driving it, we can legally move untaxed, uninsured and non-running vehicles.
What do I need to release an impounded vehicle?
Pounds usually require proof of ownership, valid insurance and a licence, plus payment of their fees. We will talk you through what your pound needs when you call.
How quickly can you collect from the pound?
As soon as the vehicle is authorised for release we collect promptly, often same day, because daily storage charges add up. Call 07960 200253 to arrange it.
