Update – December 11th:

Operational Update

Due to the snowfall yesterday and the ongoing cold, icy conditions, the VLCP has remained paused since Tuesday, December 9. Today, a limited number of crews are on-site assessing conditions, with the goal of resuming full program operations tomorrow.

To date, approximately 35% of the second and final round of collection in the Green Zone has been completed. While we remain committed to completing the program, current weather conditions are significantly impacting progress, and work will continue at a slower pace until conditions improve.

We will provide further updates as we transition back to full operation.

*********************************************************************************************

Due to challenging weather conditions, the Vacuum Leaf Collection has been delayed.  The second and final round of Green Zone (our area) pick-up is beginning today, and will continue into the week of December 8th until the entire area is complete.

The week of December 8th is the final week of yard waste collection by the Region of Peel.

Residents who have additional yard waste after the Region of Peel collection ends next week can place yard waste bags out with leaves/yard waste with the Christmas tree pick up in January. This is generally completed during the second and third week in January.

If you have any issues or concerns, please reach out to my office at 905-896-5100 or stephen.dasko@mississauga.ca.
