Burlington County residents will once again have an opportunity to recycle their confidential documents at the county’s next free paper shredding event on Sunday, April 28, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Burlington County Resource Recovery Complex in Florence.
“The Freeholder Board is pleased to offer this great county service to our residents,” Burlington County Freeholder Director Tom Pullion said. “We would like to thank the many residents who participated in the successful March event that resulted in a record breaking turnout.”
Confidential documents accepted for on-site shredding include bank and credit card statements, tax returns and papers with account numbers or social security numbers.
Already-shredded paper will also be accepted.
Resident may not offer binders, plastic folders, computer disks, plastic credit cards, magazines or junk mail. Non-confidential material will be returned to residents.
To ensure that the maximum number of residents can participate, there is a limit of four bags or boxes per car. Residents exceeding this limit will be asked to hold excess papers until the next event.
Once again, volunteers will be on hand to unload confidential files while residents remain in the comfort of their cars.
This free event is for Burlington County residents only. No businesses will be served, and identification is required for residents.
The Burlington County Resource Recovery Complex is located at 22000 Burlington-Columbus Road, Florence.
