News Release: April 6, 2020

Spring curbside battery collection is suspended

Brampton, ON (April 6, 2020) – Residents in the cities of Brampton and Mississauga and the Town of Caledon are advised that the spring curbside battery collection is suspended. This is being done to maintain waste collection services for the long term, while taking extra precautions to protect the health of essential workers and the needs of the community.

Batteries that are set out will not be picked up to avoid unnecessary manual collection. Residents are advised to hold onto their batteries for now.

Residents who live in apartments and condominiums must continue to follow the instructions and guidelines provided by their building’s property management.
