Canada Post Service Disruption – Impact on Water and Wastewater Bills

The Municipality of Leamington advises residents that water and wastewater bills will not be mailed out during the ongoing Canada Post strike, which began on September 25, 2025.

During the strike, mail will not be processed or delivered, and some post offices may be closed. As a result, property owners will not receive their water and wastewater bills by mail.

Please note that payment due dates will not change. Customers are responsible for ensuring their payments are received by the Municipality on time. The next water and wastewater billing due date is October 20, 2025.

To prevent delays and save $3.00 per bill, residents are encouraged to sign up for electronic billing (e-billing) at leamington.ca/ebilling. Those who register for e-billing before the end of the day on Thursday, October 2, 2025, will receive their September bill via email.

Accessing Your Bill

• Sign up for e-billing to receive monthly bills directly by email and avoid delays.
• If you do not wish to sign up for e-billing, billing information can be provided by phone at 519-326-5761 ext. 1215.
• If you would like a printed bill, you may request a copy at the Leamington Municipal Building, 111 Erie Street North, Leamington, beginning Monday, October 6, 2025.
• If you have already mailed a cheque, please contact 519-326-5761 ext. 1215 or email waterbill@leamington.ca to confirm whether it has been received. If not, payment must still be made before the due date to avoid penalties.

Payment Options During the Strike

To avoid penalties, residents are asked not to send payments through the mail during the strike. Instead, please use one of the following options:

• Online or telephone banking through your financial institution.

• Pre-authorized payment plans.

• Online credit or debit card payment.
• In person at the Leamington Municipal Building, 111 Erie Street North, Monday to Friday, 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM.
• After-hours drop box (cheques only, in a sealed envelope with remittance slip) at the Queen Avenue entrance of the Municipal Building.
