This has come up before, so I thought I'd post information about shredding for Orange County & Chapel Hill residents and gov't employees from the Orange County Solid Waste Department:
Orange County residents or local government employees may bring their personal confidential documents to be securely destroyed and recycled at no cost. Both events are from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. and will take place at the following locations:
* Thursday, October 7 -- University Mall, Estes Drive, Chapel Hill, near the Wachovia Bank Building. Held in conjunction with the Chapel Hill Police Department and University Mall.
* Saturday, October 16 -- Hampton Pointe Shopping Center, Hwy 86, Hillsborough at the 24-hour recycling drop-off site located behind Home Depot. Held in conjunction with the Orange County Sheriff’s Dept.
There is a limit of ten “banker-box” sized boxes or large bags of paper per person, and one trip per person. Please remove all plastic bags, plastic binders, folders, computer disks, laminated paper or any other non-paper materials prior to bringing loads to the Shred-a-thon. Incidental staples or paper clips are acceptable. No electronic media.
Event participation is limited to Orange County residents, residents who live in the part of Chapel Hill located in Durham County, or those who work for Orange County or the Towns of Carrboro, Chapel Hill and Hillsborough.
