Best way to report graffiti on pouch boxes

Post by Melted »

Hi all,

Can someone please recommend the best way to report graffiti on grey street pouch boxes?

The reason I ask, is that I found the postbox.appearance e-mail address via this forum, (which the people on the other end of were very helpful in getting a couple of graffitied boxes repainting, the folks at generic RM customer service address didn't seem to know who to pass my report to!) and I'm hoping that there's a similar direct e-mail address I can get in touch with the relevant dept. more directly.

Many thanks in advance folks :Very Happy

Thank you for that informnation. I had no idea that was the case.

Do you know if RM have a plan or programme to remove them?

It would still be nice to report the graffiti even if it is a low priority.

I believe they are meant to have been removed by now.

I know all the ones in my area were removed at least a couple of years ago (when we had the revision and Van Share was introduced).

There loads of them still on the streets where I live.

I'll get in touch with the local council to see if they know anything about plans RM have to remove them.

Thanks all for your help.
