Lawrenceburg Public Library District April 2021
Get ready for a Community
Shred Day at North Dearborn!
The Dearborn County Recycling Center and the
North Dearborn Branch of the Lawrenceburg
Public Library District will host a Community
Shred Day from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, April
17, to celebrate Earth Day.
The event will be held in the parking lot of NDB
at 25969 Dole Road, West Harrison.
A mobile shred truck will be available for Dear-
born County residents to shred their confidential
documents for free. There is no limit of files for
residents.
Participants will be asked to remain in their vehi-
cles, and to place boxes of files in the trunk or
back of the vehicle where a volunteer can re-
move the items.
The documents will be processed through an
industrial bulk paper shredding truck, leaving
confetti-sized pieces. The shredded paper will
then be recycled.
Paper files to be shredded can be left in folders
and envelopes, with paper clips and rubber
bands still attached.
Participants are asked to remove any cardboard,
3-ring binders, CDs, hard drives, plastics, and
back-up tapes. Documents and files should be
placed in boxes or paper bags.
In honor of Earth Day, the DCRC and library will
be providing reuse craft kits for kids, including a
bird feeder made from a 2-liter bottle. Attendees
should stop inside the library to receive their
craft. Supplies are limited, and will be handed
out on a first-come basis.
The DCRC will also be handing out reusable
bags to attendees.
