wheel clamping
WHEEL CLAMPING:
WHEEL CLAMPING:
Wheel clamping and vehicle removal has proved to be the most effective deterrent and cost effective solution to eliminate unauthorisd parking both on and off street.
With more and more vehicles on the roads than ever before and a poor public transport system if you provide parking for staff, customers, visitos etc,it has become a burden beyond belief. we at UK Parking Management will releve those pressures simply, professionally and cost effectively, allowing you to concentrate on what you do best- your business.
Wheel clamping is a sensitive issue and our aim is to always ensure that the motorist is learly informed of the parking restrictons by using large clear prominently located warning signs displaying the restrictions.
We strive to ensure theoffenders are treated professionally and fairly, ( we have an Appeals and complaints procedure ), to achieve this all our staff have completed a BTEC Level 2 Award in Vehicle Immobilistion ans conflict management and are currently licensed with the SIA as required by law.
LEGALITY:
The law requires that large, clear warning signs are placed throughout the parking area, informin motorists of the parking restrictions in place o that they are easily visible from wherever a car may be clamped and sholud they park in breach of the parking rstrictions, they will be entering into a contract agreeing that we can clamp/remove their vehicle and charge them to release and/or return the vehicle.
By parking, the driver automatically enters into a contract with us to clamp or remove their vehicle.
WARNING:
As if the 3rd may 2005, you will be prosecutrd for using the services of an unlicensed wheel clamping company. The government has brought about legislation that all wheel clamping companies must be licensed through the Security Indutry Authority (www.the-sia.org.uk), by employing unlicensed wheel clamping operatives you will be committing a criminal offence.
You could be liable for a maximum fine of £5000 and up to 5 years imprisonment.
UK Parking Management are one of the firt companies to have its entire staff and directors successfully complete a 35-hour training course and obtain SIA licenses as required by law.
How it works:
We arange for one of our rea managers to visit and survey your site, discuss requirements and identify your needs and decide upon the parking restrictions and number of warning signs required by law.
Once you have signed our contract we then arrange for our maintenance division to erect large clear warning signs informing motorists of the restrictions in place, clearly stating in unambiguous terms the consequences of parking illegally.
Where needed we issue your authorised vehicles with parking permits, or we shall recognise your permits if you already have a permit scheme in operation.
Our uniformed parking officers then patrol your site randomly but regularly in our sign written vans, sholud they identify a illegally parked vehicle they will affix a home office approved wheel clamp and a sticker informing the motorist how to obtain rlease. ( No reference is ade to you the site owner ).
Of course should you identify an illegally parked vehicle between our petrols, you can call our office who will locate the nearest mobile patrol and ask them to attend ASAP.
Once our office receives a request from an offender, who may pay using credit/debit cardor cash, it is radioed to the nearest patrol so to insure our patrol attends uickly. Upon payment te offender is given a full VAT receipt together with a coy of the appeals & complaints procedure.
May we add that lone females, offenders with children and the elderly are given priorit for release.
