Our recent community shred-a-thon event was a huge success, thanks to you! Over the course of one month, we collected an impressive 207 full 64-gallon shredding containers, which equals approximately 51,750 pounds of paper. After the shred events, all of the paper was taken back to our Walters campus in Henderson to be securely shredded and responsibly recycled.

This event wasn’t just about document destruction, it was about protecting privacy and the planet.

Environmental Impact of Shredding and Recycling Paper

Based on environmental impact data from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, your participation had powerful results:

• 🌳 Saved more than 441 trees
• 💧 Conserved over 174,000 gallons of water
• 🗑️ Diverted approximately 147 cubic yards of waste from local landfills

By choosing secure paper shredding and recycling, we reduced our collective carbon footprint and preserved valuable natural resources.

Why Secure Document Shredding Matters

Events like this highlight how secure document shredding not only helps prevent identity theft but also supports sustainability. Whether you’re a local business with sensitive files or a household with piles of outdated documents, shredding services offer a safe and eco-friendly solution.

Our shred-a-thon gave individuals and organizations a convenient way to shred paper responsibly, all while contributing to a greener community.
