“The annual ShredFest events across the city provide New Yorkers with the opportunity to protect themselves from identify theft by shredding and safely disposing any unwanted personal information documents,” said Sanitation Commissioner Kathryn Garcia. “These events carry environmental benefits as well; the tons of shredded paper collected will be taken to the proper facilities for recycling.”
Each and every year Confidential Shredding partners with the City of New York to set up strategically placed shred day events across the 5 boroughs in New York City. Year after year, this event has become increasingly more popular. All NYC residents have the opportunity to bring there sensitive materials to these locations and free of charge, have them securely destroyed – on-site, while they witness the process.
Don’t forget to tell your friends and family about this event. There is no better opportunity to shred all your paper documents, and also, do your part for paper recycling.
