Graffiti Management

Report Graffiti to Council on 9239 5100
The City of Greater Dandenong is committed to creating a safe and pleasant environment and has a Graffiti Management Plan.


Graffiti in Public Places
Graffiti in public places is unsightly so report its specific location to Council and include the closest address, eg, property number, a landmark, park or street.

Take note of the surface type and the size of the graffiti. The more information you give, the quicker Council can act. Also report graffiti to the Police so they are aware of the issues and can take action.


Graffiti on Private Property

Make it clear that graffiti won’t last long by removing it from your residential or commercial property within 24 hours. Call Council on 9239 5100 to discuss options and ideas for removing graffiti.

Syringe Management

Report syringes in public places
Help keep our city safer by reporting syringes left in public places. Council will organise for discarded syringes to be collected and safely disposed of.
