# Parkinson Bailiff Services Ltd

Parkinson Bailiff Services Ltd is a specialist enforcement agency based in Chorley that has been leading the UK commercial rent arrears recovery market since 1996. Operating throughout England and Wales, the company acts on behalf of commercial landlords and managing agents to recover outstanding rental payments through the formal Commercial Rent Arrears Recovery (CRAR) process.

The business serves property owners and managing agents facing tenant non-payment issues. Upon instruction, PBS initiates enforcement immediately, serving tenants with a Notice of Enforcement and a seven-day payment window. If payment isn't received, trained enforcement agents conduct controlled goods seizure visits until arrears are settled.

What distinctly sets Parkinson Bailiff apart is their unique offer of completely free collection of service charges and insurance arrears when instructed alongside rent recovery. This dual approach allows them to maintain direct tenant communication channels, positioning them to collect non-enforceable service charges that might otherwise prove difficult to recover.

The company extends beyond traditional rent collection, offering complementary services including pre-legal debt collection, forfeiture proceedings, process serving, and investigative services such as people tracing and credit checks. They also provide pre-sue reports to help clients assess collection viability before legal action.

PBS differentiates itself through proactive client engagement, regularly hosting free educational seminars at client premises or external venues, and offering one-to-one consultations. This commitment to client education and personalised service, combined with their specialist expertise and innovative free service charge collection model, makes them a comprehensive solution for commercial property arrears management.
