Haven't been to a Shred Instead Event before? Here's how it works:
The Shred Instead event is a free event hosted by Halifax Solid Waste. On the day of the event each household can bring up to three (3) boxes of sensitive paper documents to the Shred Instead location to have them disposed of safely. Paper is securely shredded onsite, and you can stay in your car. This is for residential waste only, no business waste accepted.
