The US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) estimates that each year, as many as 9 million individuals fall victim to identity theft.  Individuals and organizations can better protect themselves by properly destroying documents that contain private information before they are disposed.

Don’t let your personal or business information fall into the wrong hands.  Access will provide secure document shredding services for the first 3 boxes of paper per person or business, free of charge during the event.  Small businesses and consumers are encouraged to bring paper documents, containing outdated personal information to the site for destruction.  Examples of the types of documents that individuals need to properly destroy before disposal include: outdated financial statements, credit card statements, utility bills, cancelled checks, pre-approved credit card forms and any other documents that contain private, personal information or client data.  

Universal Recycling Technologies will accept old electronics, including computers, monitors, televisions and other household electronics at their location during the event. All of the electronic equipment collected will be properly destroyed and or recycled, free of charge.
