This Shred and E-Waste Day event is scheduled for the residents of the Gleannloch Farms community.

A shred truck will be parked at the Recreational community center to receive up to 5 boxes per resident (18 inches by 12 inches) of paper goods.  Shredding documents is an excellent way to get rid of important papers and protect your family from identity theft.

Electronic Recycling will provide a truck and the manpower to safely remove all computer related electronics that any resident brings.

The following items will be accepted:

• Phone systems, phones
• Hard Drives
• Routers, switches
• Servers
• PCs
• Laptops
• Any monitor or TV – NOTE: CRT Type TV’s/monitors will incur a fee of $25 per TV or $10 per monitor which will be accepted upfront.

The following items will NOT be accepted:

• Light bulbs
• Household batteries

Shredding Tips

• Remove Metal Binders & Binder Clips before arriving (paper clips & staples are acceptable)
• No Wet Paper
• No Hard Drives, CD’s, Video Tapes or Film Reels

Please do not bring your paper in a plastic bag. This slows the process down as the bag must be ripped open and inspected before disposing of the paper. Please bring it loose inside a box and the box will be returned to you.

There is no need to shred your papers before dropping it off. If you prefer to watch your documents shredded, please park your car away from the truck and walk to drop off and watch. We assure you all documents received between 9-11:30 will be shredded on site.

MUD 367 trash collection will be picked up by Best Trash as usual on Monday, January 16th (MLK Holiday) and Monday, February 20th (President’s Day). There will be NO interruption of service. Please make sure your trash cans are at the curb by 7am.
