Brampton, ON. (January 5, 2022) – Peel Region advises residents that the winter garbage exemption period (originally scheduled from January 24 to February 4) is suspended. This is being done in response to the record-rising COVID-19 cases, and to ensure the health and safety of essential front-line staff while maintaining Regional services for the long term.
Residents are reminded that:
Garbage tags must be used to dispose of excess garbage bags.
Untagged garbage will not be collected.
Bulky item collection will continue every garbage pick-up day.
Residents can visit peelregion.ca/waste to order garbage tags if required. Residents can also order garbage tags by phone by calling 905-791-9499 or 905-584-2216 for Caledon residents.
Residents can also take their excess garbage and bulky items to any Peel Community Recycling Centre (CRC), where disposal fees will apply.
