 Street Cleaning

Environmental Photo Reporting Scheme

Our Environmental Photo Reporting scheme allows you to report graffiti or abandoned vehicles in your area by sending us your digital photos of the problems. Visit our Environmental Photo Reporting page for full details of the scheme.

Emergency Out of Hours Service

Our City Works team provides a 24 hour, 7 days a week emergency service. An officer will be on duty outside office hours. If you have a GENUINE EMERGENCY relating to street cleaning which may put the public at risk if not reported, you should contact us. Examples include:

Calls about regular activities such as problems with litter, reporting graffiti or flyposting, missed collections or ordering a bulky waste collection should be made during normal office hours: Monday to Friday 8am - 6pm (excluding bank holidays).
