This is a drive-thru only event; no walk-ups.
Shredding services are provided on a first come, first served basis and all documents collected will be confidentially shredded and recycled.
Once the shredding truck is full, it will leave the event and the event will be concluded for the day. Neither the shredding company staff nor Waste Management staff can transport materials in the cabs of their vehicles.
All community members participating in the event should carefully check any boxes of documents prior to event participation to ensure they are free of any non-paper items including medicine, pens, pencils, binder clips, paper clips, or other non-paper materials. Only paper documents will be accepted at this event.
We thank you in advance for your kindness and patience with event staff!
