Mississauga’s waste collection schedule, as part of the Region of Peel, follows the same two-week schedule in 2023.
One week is garbage, the next week is recycling and these alternate year round, with organics (green bin) collection weekly.

You can also add your collection schedule to your Google Calendar, Apple’s iCal, and Microsoft Outlook.

Yard waste has its own set schedule, along with garbage exemption dates.
Note that there is a date in January where tree pick up occurs.

A few handy reminders:
Put your waste on the curb by 7 a.m. on your collection day, but not before 7 p.m. the night before.

• Individual bags and containers must not weigh more than 20 kg (44 lbs) each.

• Keep your waste separate from your neighbours'.

• Clear the way for collection trucks. Don't leave hockey nets and basketball posts in the street.

• Excess bags of garbage must be tagged. Order tags.

If you live in a multi-unit residence such as an apartment or condo, please contact your property management about collection services for your building.
