FREE Paper Shredding for Residents
Mark your calendars for the Spring Paper Shredding Event!
The Prince William County Solid Waste Division will hold a free document shredding event for Prince William area residents on Saturday, May 9. 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. or until trucks reach capacity. This event is for residents only and documents from businesses and commercial properties will not be permitted.
Residents may only bring confidential documents such as bank statements and tax returns for shredding. Regular-sized paper clips and staples do not need to be removed. However, heavy binding clips, 3-ring binders, cardboard, and media storage items (such as CDs, cassettes, thumb drives, or other electronic disks) are not allowed.
Non-confidential documents such as junk mail should be recycled at the curb or at a County Solid Waste facility customer convenience center or recycling drop-of trailer.
Residents may bring the equivalent of up to four medium-sized boxes (18”x12”x15”) filled with paper for shredding on-site at no charge.
Customers should stay in their vehicle with all items for shredding placed in the rear of their vehicle (trunk, hatchback, or truck bed) before coming to the shred location.
