FileStoreShred.com remains a popular web site for those looking for free shredding of their personal papers and small business records. The website maintains a nationwide list of events where you can take your confidential documents to be shredded. Destroying sensitive paperwork is one of the foundations for reducing the risk of identity theft.
Once you navigate to FileStoreShred.com, you simply look under the main menu and click on the link representing your region of the country. You are then presented with a list sorted by two-letter state/province abbreviations. Scroll through the list to find your state and city or, maybe, another city near you. When you find the city and date that you like, follow the link to get details about the event from the original source.
FileStoreShred.com emphasizes events that are free to the public. Those that are not free are duly noted. For example, shredding events hosted by government agencies that require a fee are flagged with “$$$”. Events hosted by charities that request a donation are flagged with “CDR”.
By using the Contact Us button, anyone can provide FileStoreShred.com with a link to their local free paper shredding event.
The website also makes it easy to find your local electronics recycling and household hazardous waste collection events.
