From McHenry County:
McHenry County Department of Health to hold free residential document shredding event on July 12 in Woodstock
MCHENRY COUNTY, IL – The McHenry County Department of Health (MCDH) has partnered with Paper Tiger Document Solutions to hold a document shredding event on Saturday, July 12 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the McHenry County Administration Building, located at 667 Ware Road in Woodstock.
This event is free of charge and is available exclusively for residential documents. Commercial businesses and/or companies are not eligible to participate. Only document shredding will be offered during this event; no other types of waste will be accepted. To allow Paper Tiger Document Solutions and volunteers to safely access and prepare the event site, attendees are asked not to arrive before the scheduled start time.
Documents do not need to be brought in a banker box, but they must not exceed bank box dimensions (approx. 13”x15”x11”). There will be a limit of four banker boxes per vehicle.
Paper Tiger Document Solutions, AAA-certified by the National Association of Information Destruction, will provide secure onsite document shredding. All documents will be shredded in the shred truck before leaving the site. Once the shredding truck is full, no additional documents will be accepted.
For quicker, more seamless shredding, please remember the following tips:
- The shredder can only accept paper. No CDs or thumb drives.
- Staples and paper clips are acceptable.
- Binder clips, three-ring binders, and similar items need to be removed prior to shredding. Please remove them before attending the event.
- You will need to take back any bags or boxes you bring.
