The removal service

The Town will clean, remove or cover paint or marker graffiti on any location on property under the care and control of the Town or any site (including residential and business property) where the graffiti is visible from a public place.

To help deter further graffiti damage it is critical to have graffiti removed quickly. The Town seeks to remove graffiti within 48 hours of receiving a report and will prioritise offensive graffiti for quicker removal.

Graffiti will not be removed from State or Federal Government facilities. Main Roads WA, Western Power, Transperth, the Department of Education and Training and other government organisations have graffiti reporting and removal services available by phone, e-mail and on the Internet.  Follow the quick links below to report graffiti on other government organisation's assets.

Reporting graffiti

Your graffiti report can be made by calling 9347 6000 or filling out this online graffiti removal request form. We'll need a description of the graffiti and its location including graffiti colour and type (eg. blue spray can), street numbers, cross streets, business names and any other helpful information.

Other graffiti control initiatives

The Town is also involved in the following strategies aimed at reducing graffiti:

• Providing details and photo's of all graffiti removed to local Police
• Community mural art projects on frequently tagged surfaces
• Co-ordinating a youth program and Youth Website
• Incorporating security concepts that minimise the potential for graffiti damage in the design of community areas
• Sponsorship of the Constable Care program in local schools to deliver respect and crime deterrent messages.
