Report Fly Tipping

All fly tipping should be reported to South Gloucestershire Council so they can take action to remove it.

Report Graffiti

Graffiti is not something the Town Council is willing to accept in our Town. BSTC is unfortunately not able to action removing graffiti from Street Furniture, Walls etc. that do not belong to the town council, however we will be responsible for reporting it to the correct agencies e.g. South Glos Council, Western Power, Royal Mail, BT. Once the graffiti is reported we will endeavour to follow up the reports until graffiti is removed.

Bradley Stoke Town Council offers a graffiti removal service, in conjunction with South Gloucestershire Council, to remove graffiti from private properties, subject to the property owner signing a Damage to Property Disclaimer form. There is no charge for this service. Please contact the Town Council office for more information.

Note from South Gloucestershire Streetcare Department

Our graffiti team price up each job individually so they can check that the graffiti removal is likely to be successful, assess if any damage may occur to the surface during graffiti removal and ensure they have access for their equipment. As a guide, for an averaged size tag on a residential property (e.g a rear garden wall) the charge would be £30.
