Graffiti Removal

Graffiti removal information

ALWAYS paint over graffiti immediately or call an agency which will paint it free for you. Research done in California shows that areas that are immediately painted over are much less likely to be "hit" again. Graffiti that is left up becomes a status symbol. Many communities have "adopt-a-wall" programs or programs that encourage volunteers to assist in cleaning off or painting over graffiti. Graffiti hot lines, for reporting graffiti, are available in many areas.

NEVER confront or challenge someone who is tagging a wall. Street gang members are very often armed and may assault a challenger even if they are not. If possible, obtain an accurate description of the individuals, graffiti, vehicle, and license plate number. video tapes of graffiti activities are also useful. All information should be passed on to your local law enforcement agency to investigate.

If you find graffiti in public places please notify one of the following agencies for immediate free removal. Call the city in which it was found:
