Requesting a locate before you dig is the law — whether it be to plant a tree or to build a new deck, pool or fence.

1. Submit a locate request at OntarioOneCall.ca or call 1-800-400-2255 a minimum of five business days before digging.
2. A service representative will clearly mark where the underground infrastructure runs through your dig area and will provide a locate sheet that includes a diagram of what has been located.
3. If a utility does not have infrastructure in your work area, you will still receive a response that indicates your work area is cleared to start.
4. Wait until you have received responses from all utilities listed on your Ontario One Call confirmation sheet.

Please remember to dig safely, respect the marks and follow any additional instructions provided by each utility on the locate sheets.
