Impound Release Insurance in Kingston upon Thames
The A3 and the A308 carry heavy commuter traffic through Kingston, and both sit under Met ANPR watch — an uninsured car picked up on either is seized on the spot under Section 165. South-west London seizures don't all go to one fixed pound, so the site holding your car depends on which contracted operator was covering the area that day.
Whichever pound it is, the release process is the same: a specialist impound certificate is the only document accepted at the counter. Ours is emailed within minutes of payment, so the paperwork side can be finished before you've even left for the pound.
Kingston & south-west London pounds
- The Met allocates south-west London seizures across several contracted pounds rather than a single site for Kingston.
- Your seizure notice names the exact pound and its opening hours — check both before travelling.
How do I find out which pound has my car?
The seizure notice you were given states the exact site and its opening hours — it's the only reliable source, since south-west London seizures aren't routed to one fixed pound.
How quickly can I get moving on this?
The quote takes about 2 minutes and the 28-day impound certificate is emailed within minutes of payment, so you can be ready to travel the same day the notice arrives.
What do the pound fees add up to?
The statutory scale applies: typically £192 for removal plus roughly £26 per day of storage, paid at the pound in addition to the insurance certificate.
