Participants are asked to follow traffic signs and remain in their vehicles. Shred truck staff will unload cars, and parking will be available for those who wish to see their documents fed into the shredder. While paper folders, staples and paper clips can be fed into the shredder, large binder clips, plastic file folders, and old floppy discs cannot. Additionally, no electronics will be accepted for recycling or disposal.
“As people are gathering their sensitive documents for free, safe and secure destruction, I hope they will look through their kitchen pantry and grab a few nonperishable items to donate,” said Wilcox. “It’s a pleasure to offer this free service for the shared constituencies we serve and to help replenish supplies at a few local food pantries.”
