Oakland County Document Shredding Events 2022

Experts always say it’s best to have sensitive documents shredded to protect against theft. Confidential and personal documents will be shred on site by Rapid Shred’s state-of-the-art high volume shredding truck. The truck 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 residents only. No commercial or business use.

These events are sponsored by Vibe Credit Union, Oakland County Sheriff’s Office and Oakland County Parks and Recreation.

Oakland County residents may bring their confidential, personal documents to be shred on site for free by Rapid Shred’s state-of-the-art, high volume shredding truck.
