T
he Ocean County Board of Freeholders, in conjunction with the county Department of Solid Waste Management, is again sponsoring its Residential Document Shredding Program this fall, to be held in multiple municipalities starting this month. “This program gives our residents an opportunity to shred old documents and personal papers safely and securely,” said Freeholder James F. Lacey, who serves as liaison to the county’s recycling program. “It costs nothing to use the program and it certainly helps to provide peace of mind.” Dates, times and local sites for the shredding program are as follows: Sept. 28, 9-11 a.m.: Long Beach Township Recycling Center, 7910 Long Beach Blvd., Brant Beach Oct. 6, 9 a.m.-1 p.m.: Ocean County Southern Recycling Center, 379 Haywood Rd., Stafford Township Oct. 19, 9 a.m.-1 p.m.: Little Egg Harbor Township Community Center, 319 West Calabreeze Way, Little Egg Harbor Nov. 2, 9 a.m.-1 p.m.: Ocean Township Town Hall, 50 Railroad Ave., Waretown The program is only open to county residents. Residents can attend any site, free of cost, and registration is not required. Participants can bring up to six boxes or bags of documents. For added ease, paper clips and staples do not have to be removed. Commercial documents will not be accepted, nor will X-rays, CDs, floppy disks, microfilm or file folders. As Lacey explained, the program is secure because the shredding units feature an automatic feeding and dumping system that eliminates human contact with residents’ documents. “This approach provides an added layer of security for our residents,” Lacey remarked. “Identity theft can cause havoc on a person’s everyday life,” said Freeholder Director Gerry P. Little. “We want to make sure important papers are gotten rid of properly so information cannot be stolen.” This past spring, more than 68 tons of papers were shredded through the county program.
