Paper Shredding Events
Looking for a shredding event near you? Bring your paperwork to shred to one of the events listed here in July, August, September 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. Many of these events are free, but some are not. Many events hosted by municipalities are open only to local residents. Please check each venue.
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.
Did we miss one that should be on the list? Please add it by leaving a comment below. Thanks!
