The City of Falcon Heights, in partnership with Ramsey County, Repowered and Proshred is hosting a free paper shredding and electronic waste event for all residents of Falcon Heights. 

Monday, April 22 - 9:00 - 11:00 AM, Falcon Heights City Hall - 2077 Larpenteur Ave. W., Falcon Heights, MN 55113

Paper Shredding

Proshred will be on-site with their mobile shredding truck. After all your confidential documents are fully shredded and destroyed, our Customer Service Professionals (CSPs) will provide you with a certificate of destruction as proof that the destruction has occurred and been completed. Having a certificate of destruction ensures the final step in the shredding process for full compliance with privacy laws like HIPAA, HITECH, FACTA and GLBA. We then take your shredded documents to a local recycling facility where 100% of the papers and documents are recycled. 

All paper that needs shredding is accepted! Examples include:

• Sensitive documents
• Credit card offers
• Receipts
• Bills

Please limit to five boxes/grocery bags per household.
