A while ago you said it was OK to move cars off common property (in NSW) provided you put a “move it or lose it” sticker on the vehicle. Is this still the case?

Sadly, no. The relevant section of the law was repealed last year.

Abandoned cars can be removed under the terms of the Abandoned Goods Act, but you have to be sure they have been abandoned, and not just wrongly parked by a selfish idiot.

However, if this is a regular problem, you might like to look at this story for some ideas.

PLEASE ... If your property is not in NSW, mention its location (state). Don't identify companies or individuals by name. Don't mention or promote your company or services. Keep acronyms and initials to a minimum. Please, don’t use “quote” unless there is a specific point to which you wish to refer, then highlight (define) that specific passage before you click on "quote". Otherwise just use reply. THANKS.
