How can I report parking problems and nuisance vehicles?

We receive many queries from residents in relation to parking in the borough and appreciate that inconsiderate parking can cause issues amongst residents. 

The majority of the land in the Basildon Borough is owned and maintained by Essex County Council. Any queries relating to parking on Essex County Council land should be directed to Essex County Council and/or the South Essex Parking Partnership:

•  South Essex Parking Partnership (SEPP) (chelmsford.gov.uk) or by telephone 01245 606710

If you are having issues with inconsiderate parking on housing land, please contact the Tenancy Services Team:

• Contact your Tenancy Services team

If a vehicle is blocking your access onto the highways, this is classed as an obstruction and can be dealt with by Essex Police:

• www.essex.police.uk or telephoning 101

If you believe a vehicle is abandoned, please report this online:

• Online form - Report an abandoned vehicle

If you are a Basildon Council tenant and wish to park on your front garden, you will be required to install a hardstanding and a dropped kerb. Prior to making any alterations to the property, permission must be requested from the Stock Condition Team for the hardstanding:

• Request permission from the Stock Condition team

To install a dropped kerb, you will need to apply via Essex County Council:

• Essex County Council - Vehicle Crossings

Works cannot go ahead until the hardstanding and dropped kerb has been approved. Please note, you will be responsible for all costs associated with these works.
