Free fall shred-a-thon set for tomorrow morning

Residents are invited to bring up to five boxes containing paper documents to be destroyed in a truck-mounted shredder.

The City of Renton is hosting a free Shred-a-thon tomorrow, Saturday, from 9 a.m. to noon at the Sam’s Club parking lot.

Residents are invited to bring up to five boxes containing paper documents to be destroyed in a truck-mounted shredder. Boxes should be 12 to 15 inches deep and 10 inches high, or bring the amount of paper that would fit in boxes that size.

Documents should be free of paper clips and other metal (staples do not need to be removed). Documents are limited to household papers, and will be shredded on site. Plastic items such as credit cards, notebooks and CD’s cannot be accepted.

Please legally park your vehicle in the vicinity of the Iron Mountain trucks. You can bring your documents to the truck in a shopping cart, or we will come to your vehicle to assist you.

Iron Mountainwill provide the shredding services and the Renton Police Department will provide information related to identity theft.

Donations of canned goods will also be accepted for the Renton Food Bank.

The free event runs from 9 a.m. to noon tomorrow, Oct. 4 at 901 S. Grady Way.
