What is Rep Dave Vella’s

Super Shred & Recycling Day?

Shred Day is a community event that provides a safe, secure, and environmentally friendly way to dispose of your sensitive documents. Whether it’s old tax returns, medical records, or financial statements, you can drop them off to be professionally shredded — completely free of charge.

By participating, you’re helping to:

* Protect your personal information from identity theft

* Reduce waste through responsible paper recycling

* Support a cleaner, safer community

Icons illustrating recycling guidelines: paper, medication, eyeglasses, retired flags, cellphone, baby diapers; with text indicating items to be recycled or donated.

How does it work?

* Drive-Up Only – Stay in your car, and we’ll unload your recyclables

* Rain or Shine – This event happens no matter the weather

* No ID Needed

* Free Service

*Secure Shredding — On-site shredding will be available until the shred truck reaches capacity. We’ll continue collecting paper after that, with all additional paper securely shredded at CPM Recycling.
