Coming 2026 – New Recycling Provider for Peel
Starting January 1, 2026, an organization called Circular Materials will manage recycling, instead of Peel Region. This change is part of a province-wide mandate that shifts the responsibility of recycling operations and costs to producers; the companies that create packaging and paper.
What does this mean for you? Starting January 1, 2026:
- Your recycling schedule and bin stay the same.
- Peel Region will still collect garbage, organics, and yard waste.
- For recycling bin and collection issues, contact GFL – Green For Life Environmental Inc. (the contractor hired to provide collection services) at:
https://gflenv.com/canada-recycles
1-877-268-4351
Why is this changing?
The Ontario government is moving to an Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) model for recycling. This means businesses that create recyclable packaging are responsible for fully funding and managing recycling programs. The goal is to:
- Encourage companies to use more sustainable packaging
- Make recycling rules consistent across Ontario
- Improve recycling results

Human sex trafficking

It’s a topic many of us find difficult to discuss or to support friends and family who may be victims. Forcing someone into commercial sex acts is a crime. The Region of Peel offers tools, support and guidance to help those in need.
Stormwater management ponds, like Lake Wabukayne, are designed to store and treat stormwater from surrounding areas. They do this by temporarily storing water that runs through storm sewers, which allows sediment and debris to settle to the bottom of pond. To ensure the pond continues to function as intended, this accumulated sediment must be occasionally removed through a process called dredging. Lake Wabukayne is scheduled for dredging in 2026. This is done by draining the pond, and removing the sediment. Many other maintenance works such as fence and outfall repairs will be completed in this time as there will be improved access.
Stormwater staff have been working on a detailed design of the Lake Wabukayne Dredging Project over the last few months, with surveys and more detailed assessments being completed. Over the next few weeks, residents can expect some additional drilling within the park as park of the final geotechnical investigations. When construction begins in 2026, there will be impacts to the trails surrounding the pond, and sections of the park will be closed as they will be used for drying of sediment, staging or storage areas. More details of the construction will follow once they are available.
Questions, can be directed to the stormwater Project Manager, Evelyn Krolicka Lewis: evelyn.krolicka@mississauga.ca
