Customer requests
A customer request / service request is an enquiry for assistance to inspect, remove, replace, repair or reinstate council facilities or amenities that may be damaged or missing as a result of a number of circumstances.
How do I lodge a customer request?
There are a number of ways you can lodge a service request:
- during business hours you can call 1300 656 564 and speak with a customer service officer.
- submit a customer request
- if your request is urgent and outside business hours call 1300 656 564 and follow the prompts to be connected to an on call staff member – this may include reporting wandering stock and stray animals, reporting dog attacks, fallen trees or other road hazards on our local road network or a public toilet that needs cleaning.
- you can email customerenquiry@moyne.vic.gov.au with details of your request
- or you can visit our customer service centres at Port Fairy or Mortlake during business hours.
Making comments on social media or messaging council’s social media pages may not be seen and therefore not actioned. Contacting council directly though the above methods is the best way of guaranteeing your request will be seen and actioned.
What can I use a customer request for?

- removal of dead animals
