The troop will quickly and thoroughly destroy business and personal documents such as tax records, bank statements, bills, and credit card receipts, by partnering with a local third-party expert in secure document shredding. For the past several years Troop 1 Stow has partnered with EL Harvey. You can learn more about EL Harvey’s destructions services here.
EL Harvey will use its state-of-the-art truck for this event. The truck can shred thousands of pounds of paper an hour and its advanced shredding technology ensures each shred is completed efficiently and with the highest level of security. No need to take out staples, paper clips, or other small fasteners. You can watch your documents be destroyed via closed-circuit TV right on the shredding truck to ensure your documents are properly destroyed! All shredded material will be recycled, so you’ll be protecting the environment while protecting your identity.
