As you may be aware, the Region of Peel has changed the timing of its garbage exemption periods, starting this year, to maintain and enhance our waste collection services for our residents.
The new dates for 2019 and early 2020 are:
| OLD DATES | NEW DATES |
| May 2019
(following Victoria Day) |
June 17-28, 2019 |
| September 2019
(following Labour Day) |
September 16-27, 2019 |
| December 2019
(following Christmas/New Year) |
January 27-31, 2020
February 3-7, 2020 |
During an exemption period there is no maximum amount of acceptable garbage residents can put on the curb. Garbage bag tags are not required during exemption periods.
This change was made to address the high volume of excess garbage that is typically collected during an exemption period, as well as to avoid holidays and conflicts with other waste pick-up services being provided around the same time.
To proactively inform residents of this change, the Region is communicating this information through several channels, starting May 6 through to end of June, with similar reminders going out in the Fall and Winter.
The Region will also be using this opportunity to promote a waste collection notifications feature launching soon, which residents can start registering for ahead of time.
Information will be delivered to residents using Peel’s website, Twitter and subscriber e-newsletter, community newspapers and direct mail, mobile street signage, and face-to-face resident interactions with Peel’s by-law officers. Examples of Peel’s communications material are attached for your reference.
For more information about these exemption changes, please contact Paula Della Bianca, Project Manager, Curbside Policies and Programs for the Region of Peel at 905-791-7800 ext. 4513 or Paula.DellaBianca@peelregion.ca.

Current water levels along the Lake Ontario shoreline are high and are nearing the levels set in 2017, when extreme conditions caused significant damage along the lakeshore in Mississauga. Levels in Lake Ontario are higher than usual due to higher than usual intake from Lake Erie and restriction of water outflow at the Moses-Saunders Power Dam. Staff are regularly patrolling the City of Mississauga shoreline and report some flooding along the waterfront specifically at:
High water is expected to continue along the waterfront for some time and peak over the next month before slowly receding. I have attached some pictures of current conditions for your consideration.
The current weather forecast indicates that rain will continue to fall today and continue until Friday with forecasted accumulation of 40 mm of precipitation by the end of the week. In addition, we are currently experiencing high gusts of easterly winds, which directly affect wave action into the shoreline. The Works Operations and Maintenance Incident Management Team has been activated and will be meeting again this afternoon to report on conditions. I will provide another update following this meeting.
Mitigation Strategies
The City of Mississauga has received a Lake Ontario Flood Watch from the Credit Valley Conservation (CVC). Water safety messaging is in place on the City’s website.
Should you require additional information or assistance, please contact me………….
