LITTLE EGG HARBOR, NJ - The free Ocean County Residential Document Shredding Program will get underway coming to Little Egg Harbor Township, Community Center Lot, 319 W. CalaBreeze Way, at 9 a.m. to noon, on Saturday, May 8. “This very popular program moves around the county providing a layer of safety from identity theft,” said Director of the Ocean County Board of Commissioners Gary Quinn, who serves as liaison to the County’s recycling program and Solid Waste Management. “This is an opportunity to rid your home of papers that may include sensitive information that should be shredded rather than just tossed into recycling.”
The 2021 event includes 16 various times and locations throughout the county and will be serviced by IDSAutoshred of Toms River. This program is free to Ocean County Residents only and commercial documents will not be accepted at the collection site. “I encourage our residents to attend any of the sites available during this year’s program,” Quinn said. “You are not limited to which sites you can attend. We hold it across the County to make certain it’s convenient for our residents.” While registration is not required, he noted the program is very popular and often sites fill up fast. “Ocean County offers a number of programs to make recycling convenient,” Quinn said. “Recycling helps to save landfill space and protects the environment. We encourage our citizens to take advantage of the programs offered and to help make a difference in preserving our natural resources.”
The shred units feature an automatic feeding and dumping system that eliminates human contact with private documents. Residents are limited to five file boxes or 100 pounds of confidential documents per car. During the event residents must wear face coverings and stay in vehicles at all times. Materials should be in the trunk, cargo area or truck bed, easily accessible to the staff who will remove it from your vehicle. The program is for all paper documents and paper forms; paper clips and staples need not be removed. Unacceptable items include magazines, books, junk mail, hanging file folders, greeting cards, photos, x-rays, CDs, floppy disks, microfilm, shredded paper and garbage.
