Fly posting

What is fly posting?

Fly posting is the unauthorised placing of any sign, poster or sticker advertising or promoting an event or commercial activity on any street sign, public utility street cabinets or on private premises without the owner's permission, and it is illegal.

Removing fly posting

We are responsible for the removal of fly posting from council property and on the public highways in the district. Public utilities such as telecom companies or bus and railway companies are responsible for removing items that have been fly posted on their property.

Report fly posting

Please note: for fly posted items on private property, it is the property owner's responsibility for removal.
