Private Parking Unauthorised Vehicles Will Be Towed Signs
The Private Parking Unauthorised Vehicles Will Be Towed Away Sign is a clear parking restriction sign for landowners, facilities teams and site managers. It helps you warn drivers at car parks, service yards and private bays before unauthorised parking causes blocked access or disputes.
Best Places to Position This Parking Sign
You should install this sign at the entry point to private parking, beside reserved bays, on boundary fencing or near a service yard gate. Place it where a driver can read it before parking, so the restriction is clear before access is blocked or a dispute begins.
Viewing Distance Guide
Choose the larger format where drivers approach from across a yard or car park. Use the smaller format where vehicles slow down near a bay, doorway or gate. These distances are practical selection guidance, not a legal viewing-distance claim.
| Size option | Practical viewing distance | Best suited location |
|---|---|---|
| H 400 x W 300 mm | Up to around 10 metres / 33 feet | Private bays, gates, garage entries and close-range parking points |
| H 600 x W 400 mm | Around 15–20 metres / 49–66 feet | Car park entrances, service yards, wider approaches and boundary fencing |
Expected Parking Control Outcomes
After installation, the sign should make the parking rule clear before a driver leaves a vehicle. It helps you reduce casual misuse, protect authorised spaces and give staff a consistent reference when challenging obstructive parking.

Installation Guidance
❌ Fitting it behind parked vehicles where the message is hidden.
❌ Mounting it so high that drivers cannot read it from a vehicle.
❌ Using one small sign for several separated parking areas.
❌ Not suitable as a stand-alone legal power to tow vehicles.
❌ Not suitable where the wording conflicts with your actual parking terms.
❌ Not ideal for fast-moving public highway use; choose approved traffic signage for that setting.
✅ Fit it near the decision point: bay, gate, entrance or fence line.
✅ Use the larger size for open car parks, yards and longer approaches.
✅ Recheck visibility after installation, especially at night or during busy parking periods.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Private Parking Unauthorised Vehicles Will Be Towed Away Sign right for my site? Yes, where you need a clear parking restriction at privately controlled spaces and the wording matches your parking management process.
Can I use this sign as my only authority to tow a vehicle? No. Use it only where the message fits an authorised parking control process; in England and Wales, moving or restricting a vehicle without lawful authority can be an offence.
Which size should I choose? Use H 400 x W 300 mm for close-range spaces and H 600 x W 400 mm where drivers approach from further away, such as wider entrances or open car parks.
Can this sign be used outside? Yes, the supplied product details state indoor/outdoor display. You should still choose fixings and a mounting position that suit wind, weather and the surface.
Where should I put it if several spaces are affected? Fit one at the entrance and add further signs near the affected bays if drivers could miss the first sign once inside the parking area.
