The City of Gulf Shores is partnering with the Coastal Alabama Business Chamber, the City of Orange Beach, and the Gulf State Park to bring the Annual E-Cycling & Shred Day to Coastal Alabama. This event is scheduled for Saturday, January 7, from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the Gulf State Park Beach Pavilion on East Beach Boulevard.
Shred Day is free to attend with a rather simple process, drive up in the lane you are directed to, and volunteers will be on-site to take items from your vehicle.
Individuals can bring personal paper documents to be shredded, such as:
- Bank statements
- Canceled checks
- Paycheck stubs
- ATM receipts
- Credit card statements
- Utility bills
Each vehicle is limited to 50 pounds of shred. Items such as small paper clips do not need to be removed. Attendees are asked to please not tape or tie bags or boxes.
Attendees may also bring any electronic items for disposal, such as:
- Televisions
- Computers
- Vacuums
- Printers
- Power tools
Please note that BATTERIES WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.
“We started this event over 10 years ago, and I’ve been really happy with its success and the support of the community,” Steve Jones, CABC VP of Events and Community Relations, said. “We run rain or shine, and it’s a great way to both help the environment and clear out any personal clutter.”
For more information, please contact the Coastal Alabama Business Chamber at 251-968-7200 or visit www.mygulfcoastchamber.com.
