Impound Release Insurance in Chester

Chester sits where the M53 meets the A55 heading into North Wales, a junction Cheshire Constabulary monitors closely with ANPR — a car showing as uninsured on either road is seized under Section 165 on the spot.

From there it's recovered to a contracted operator covering Cheshire, and only a specialist impound certificate will secure its release; a standard motor policy is declined at the gate. We issue and email ours within minutes of payment, so a same-day trip to the pound is generally achievable.

Which operator holds cars seized around Chester?

Cheshire Constabulary's contracted recovery operator for the county — the seizure notice states the exact address and opening hours.

Is same-day collection realistic?

Yes in most cases, since the certificate is emailed within minutes of paying, leaving time to reach the pound before it shuts.

What are the ongoing storage costs?

Around £26 per day of storage on top of an initial removal charge of roughly £192, so it's worth collecting quickly.
