Paper Shredding Event

Representive Pennycuick is hosting a free contactless paper shredding event on May 1, from 9 a.m. to noon, (or until the truck is full) at Oak Ridge Elementary School, 465 Moyer Road in Harleysville.

The event, which will feature an on-site industrial paper shredder from Wiggins Shredding, will provide the opportunity for households to shred up to two packing boxes of materials. Cardboard boxes and plastic bags will be returned; paper bags can be shredded along with the other material.

This is a great opportunity for residents to get rid of large amounts of unwanted documents CONTAINING PERSONAL INFORMATION that could be used to steal their identity or cause other harm. Magazines, newspapers and other similar materials can and should be recycled at the curb.

Residents will not need to get out of their vehicle; simply pull up and we will take care of the rest. The event will be held rain or shine. Any questions, please contact the office at 610-323-3299 in Gilbertsville or 215-256-6030 in Harleysville.
