Have sensitive documents laying around? Protect your identity by shredding your files.

Documents can contain paper clips, staples and binder clips. But they must be free of plastic binders and metal hanging folders.

Midwest Shredding will provide Certificate of Destruction handouts and return any containers. Shredding is for paper only. Electronics, CDs and DVDs not accepted.

Tomahawk Ridge Community Center

We throw away a lot of stuff, often because it’s cheaper to replace rather than repair it or we just don’t know how to fix it. That’s where Repair Cafés come in! Together with our volunteers, you can have your broken items repaired instead of tossing them. We’ll also have another clothing swap where you can bring your clothing to trade with others–spruce up your closet the sustainable way. More info >>
