Bring your secure, personal documents to one of DPW’s Special Waste Collection Events for shredding (see schedule here): 

• Residents may bring up to five, medium-size boxes (approximately 20” x 14” x 14”) of personal documents to be shredded. Only paper and credit cards will be accepted. Staples, paper and binder clips on the paper are okay.
• We encourage you to only bring personal "secure" documents for shredding, i.e., sensitive documents such as medical records, school records, tax forms, legal or court document, or anything containing your social security number.
• Not every paper with your mailing address needs to be shredded. Please recycle magazines and junk mail through your curbside recycling bin.
• Note: No business or commercial material will be accepted at DPW's Special Waste Collection Events. 

Alternatives:

• For a small fee, local businesses will offer secure shredding services during more convenient business hours. Google search "Document shredding near me" to find a location nearest you. 
• Looking to recycle paper you've shredded at home? Place your shredding documents in a paper bag and staple it shut before placing in your recycling bin.
