Important Recycling Update for Port Credit Businesses

Port Credit BIA businesses should have received a letter from Peel Region regarding changes to Ontario’s recycling program.

As of January 1, 2026, Ontario changed how recycling is managed across the province. While most locations in Peel Region now have a new recycling provider under the Circular Materials program, commercial addresses in Port Credit will continue to receive recycling service from Peel Region.

What This Means for You:

• Your recycling collection day(s) have NOT changed.

• You must use the recycling carts assigned to your address that are labelled with a “COMMERCIAL RECYCLING USE ONLY” sticker.

• These stickers were placed on applicable carts by Peel staff prior to January 1, 2026.

Do not use unstickered carts, as those are designated for residential use only.

Why the Change:

Most locations in Peel are now part of Ontario’s new recycling program managed by Circular Materials. However, commercial properties are not eligible under this new program, and any promotional messaging you may see about these changes does not apply to your business.

Who to Contact:

For recycling or garbage service inquiries, please contact:

Main Street Collection (Permanent Silver Dual Stream Bins):

• Main Street permanent silver dual stream garbage bins along Lakeshore will continue to be collected by Peel Region.

Recycling materials from the permanent silver dual stream bins on the Main Street will be collected by Circular Materials.
