It’s baaaack! It took a while for the NBC4 Safe & Secure Community Shred to come back to Prince Georges County so hopefully, you’ve been gathering your paper piles and getting ready for it’s return.  It’s time to kick those unwanted docs to the curb!  Got electronics?  Montgomery County has an event for you, too.

    Also, the web site FileStoreShred.com maintains a list of free paper shredding and electronics recycling events in the state and from coast to coast across the country. Similar to what is mentioned above, these events are faster and easier than trying to dispose of this stuff at home. Up until now, it was never this easy to find a shred or recycling event when you needed one. You can also post upcoming shred/recycling events on this website.
