There are two scheduled shredding events this year:
These events are designed to be convenient and efficient for residents. The drive-up and drop-off format means you can stay in your car while volunteers collect your boxes for shredding.
Participants are asked to bring boxes or containers of paper to be shredded. A suggested donation of $10 per box or container is requested, with all proceeds benefiting Special Olympics Illinois.
Before bringing your documents, make sure to remove any plastic and metal items, such as staples and paper clips, to ensure a smooth shredding process.
Once collected, the documents are shredded offsite by Cutting Edge Document Destruction, Inc., a HIPAA-compliant and AAA-certified company. Westmont Police Department personnel oversee the process to ensure secure handling.
These shredding events provide Westmont residents with a valuable opportunity to protect their personal information and reduce the risk of identity theft. At the same time, your participation supports athletes and programs through Special Olympics Illinois.
Special Olympics merchandise is often available for purchase at the event, giving attendees another way to contribute to the cause.
The Westmont paper shredding events are a practical and meaningful way to declutter your home, protect your privacy, and support a local charity. Whether you have old tax documents, bank statements, or personal files you no longer need, these fundraisers make secure shredding simple and community focused. LEARN MORE.
