Oakland County Document Shredding Events 2022

Experts always say it’s best to have sensitive documents shredded to protect against theft. County residents can have the confidential and personal documents shredded on site by Rapid Shred’s state-of-the-art high volume shredding trucks.

The trucks will be in the parking lot. There is no need for residents to leave their cars. Arrive early as there is typically a line of cars, although the line moves quickly.

Residents are reminded to limit documents to three or four boxes of paper only. This service is available to Oakland County residents only. No commercial or business use.
