What happens when you decide to take your well-earned three-week holiday? Well, before you go, you will have arranged your pets to be in good hands, that someone keeps an eye on your garden and maybe your home as well. However, you should also keep your car in mind. Did you know that leaving your car untouched for long periods of time can be more damaging than driving it every day?

When you leave your car unused for long periods of time, the fluids in it aren’t circulated through its systems often enough. This can cause the fluids to become coagulated or stale, resulting in damage or lowered effectiveness. So, if you’re not going to use your car for an extended period of time, you should drain all its fluids before you leave. Call a professional if you aren’t sure how to go about it.

Batteries can lose charge and even stop working altogether. The same goes for your car’s oil. Old, unused oil can be harmful to your car, so if it hasn’t been used for some time, you should make sure to have the oil replaced.

And the most important is to make sure your car hasn't blocked anyone's home. if you do, after he wrote the report form, The registered owner of the vehicle will be contacted and will be asked to remove the vehicle if necessary.

If the vehicle is not stolen and the owner is not known, a Community Safety Inspector will attempt to find the owner by door knocking the adjacent residences, leaving a contact card if no one is home. you only have two days left before your car has been impounded and towed to Council's pound.
