What is an Unregistered / Abandoned Vehicle?

Each year a number of unregistered vehicles are left on Council land including roadways and parks. The Local government act allows Council to remove unregistered or abandoned vehicles if the owner fails to do so.

If a vehicle is currently registered, parked legally and an owner has been identified, Council cannot take action. A vehicle can include cars, motorcycles, trucks, trailers, and caravans.

A vehicle may be Impounded by Council if:

• The vehicles registration is Expired or Cancelled on the VicRoads website. A VicRoadsunregistered Vehicle Permit enables the movement of an unregistered vehicle between private properties during daylight hours but does not grant permission for the vehicle to be parked on a roadway.
• The Vehicle is registered but has not moved for at least 2 months and an owner cannot be identified.

Most reports are resolved within 14 business days.

Depending on the registration status some can take up to 60 business days.

Reports we cannot investigate

Vehicles believed to be abandoned in any of the following locations are not actionable by council. Please report the following types of abandoned vehicles to the relevant authorities:

• On roads managed by VicRoads - report it to VicRoads.

• On private property, including shopping centre car parks - report it to the property owner.
• Dumped in water - report it to the Department of Environment, Water and Planning.
• If you think the vehicle is stolen - report it to Victoria Police.
• If you think an unregistered vehicle is being driven - report it to Victoria Police.

How to report an unregistered or abandoned vehicle

You can report unregistered or abandoned vehicles online by following the steps below:

Step 1. If the vehicle has plates, check if the vehicle is registered on the VicRoads website.  This will show if the vehicle is unregistered or stolen. www.vicroads.vic.gov.au/registration/buy-sell-or-transfer-a-vehicle/check-vehicle-registration/vehicle-registration-enquiry-

Step 2. Report unregistered or abandoned vehicle form Submit Request

What happens next?

• Reported vehicles will be investigated within 10 working days
• If the vehicle is unregistered or appears to be abandoned, an officer will place an Unregistered or Abandoned Vehicle Sticker on the vehicle, providing advice to the owner and requesting the vehicle be relocated within a set period of time.
• If the vehicle is not moved, it may be impounded.

Unwanted Vehicles

If you own a vehicle, that you no longer want, various businesses in the Wyndham area offer complimentary pick-up services, and in some instances, they may compensate the owner for the unwanted vehicle. Private tow truck operators, second-hand vehicle dealerships, or scrap metal recycling businesses may help with the removal of such vehicles.

We recommend visiting our Business Directory or other search engines to locate a service that suits your requirements and removes your unwanted vehicle. If Council impounds an unwanted vehicle, a penalty may be issued to the owner.

Our Environmental Health Officers conduct regular education visits to tobacco retailers, eating establishments, schools, childcares, licensed premises and gaming venues in regards to administering and enforcing requirements under the Tobacco Act 1987. We also enforce non-compliances in response to education visits and public complaints.

Wyndham City aims to reduce the harmful effects of tobacco smoking through:

• Enforcing any sales of tobacco or e-cigarette products to minors (persons under 18)
• Enforcing smoke-free dining
• Enforcing smoke-free workplaces
• Banning smoking in designated areas of licensed premises, shopping centres and children and young people areas used for recreational and sporting activities
• Regulating the display and advertising of tobacco products
• Referring illegal tobacco products

Tobacco Retailers

Strict legislation regulates the sale and display of tobacco and e-cigarettes within retailers. Any form of tobacco advertising or promotion such as flags, posters, stickers or signage either within or external of the retail outlet is prohibited. Tobacco and e-cigarette products including vapes are also prohibited from being displayed anywhere within the retail outlet.

Environmental Health Officers conduct regular education visits to retailers to ensure they understand their legal obligations when selling tobacco or e-cigarette products. Businesses found to be selling illegal/black-market tobacco, nicotine-containing vapes or any fruit, sweet or confectionary flavoured rolling papers will be referred to Victoria Police and the Commonwealth for investigation.

Retailers can update their contact details through the Request for Information Form.

Sales to minors

The sale of tobacco or e-cigarette products to people under 18 years of age is illegal in Victoria.

Wyndham City Council operates a program where young people under 18 years of age are employed to carry out 'test purchasing' at tobacco outlets across the municipality. Each young person is educated about Victoria’s tobacco laws and instructed to follow procedures developed by the Department of Health and Human Services.

If you sell tobacco or e-cigarettes including vapes to a person under 18, Council will take enforcement action including issuing fines or prosecution.

Make a complaint

Wyndham City’s Environmental Health Department investigates complaints received from the community in relation to breaches of the Tobacco Act 1987.

To report businesses that breach tobacco retailing laws, contact Council via our Online Customer Service Portal.
