Looking for a shredding event near you? Bring your paperwork to shred to one of the events listed here in January, February, March 2014 and beyond. We attempt to ensure this information is updated and correct, but you really should verify dates, locations, fees, accepted materials and other pertinent details with the event hosts before heading to any shredding event.

Electronics Recycling
Most paper shredding events do NOT accept electronics for recycling. You might find this link helpful for electronics recycling drop off locations in PA. This time of the year is typically light for public shredding events. More occur right after tax filing. If you found this post helpful, we’d love for you to leave a comment and the town you were searching for. Just scroll to the bottom. Did we miss one that should be on the list? Please add it by leaving a comment below. Thanks!
