Shred It Instead will be Saturday, Oct. 19 from 9 a.m. until the truck is filled at American Town Hall, 220 N Travis Street.

Bring up to 3 "Bankers Boxes" of paper only. No binder clips, staples or paper clips, please. Volunteers will unload your vehicle.

CAN I WATCH MY PAPER GET SHREDDED? The shredding is done on the spot in batches into a shredding truck. If you would like to see your batch shredded, tell the lot attendant you want to park instead of drive through. Then, carry your paper to the shredding truck and wait until the batch containing your paper is shredded.

ARE MY PAPERS SECURE? The company that has been hired for this event is the same one that worked the April 2024 event and also that the City entrusts for its ongoing secure shredding service.

HOW MANY BOXES OF PAPER AND WHAT SIZE BOXES CAN I BRING TO HAVE SHREDDED? Up to three Bankers Boxes, max size of 24x15x10 1/4" 

WHAT ARE THE HOURS FOR SHRED IT INSTEAD? The event is from 9 a.m. to noon, or until the shredding truck is filled.
