If accumulations are below 5 cm, a salt service run will be completed.
Residential properties will also be monitored and serviced if the 5 cm threshold is met.

Anticipated completion: 5:00 AM

Salt Supply Update — Southern Ontario

Southern Ontario continues to experience a significant regional salt shortage due to sustained winter demand, repeated storm systems, and ongoing supply chain constraints. Municipalities continue to receive priority allocations, further tightening product availability for private contractors.

Salt depot inventories across the GTA remain:

Limited and inconsistent
Frequently depleted without notice
Subject to daily allocation limits
Increasingly difficult to access overnight

Salt is becoming increasingly scarce to locate and secure. Many suppliers are running low or temporarily out of product, and inventories fluctuate daily. In some cases, contractors must travel outside their local service regions to obtain supply.

Paramount Snow Management is working diligently and proactively with multiple suppliers across Southern Ontario to secure salt; however, it is becoming progressively more difficult to access consistent inventory.

Due to these constraints:

Salt deployment must be strategically timed
Material must be used responsibly and efficiently
Service timing may be impacted depending on availability

We appreciate your continued understanding as we navigate these supply challenges while prioritizing safety across all properties.

Teams will continue to monitor all sites throughout each region while servicing is underway. Should conditions change or accumulations exceed forecasted amounts, we will adjust service levels accordingly and update this site.
