Have sensitive documents laying around? Protect your identity by shredding your files.
The City is partnering with Midwest Shredding Service, LLC, to offer a morning of free document shredding. Residents can bring documents in bags or boxes to the Municipal Services Service Center. 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.
Raytown and Kansas City will jointly host a collection event for household hazardous waste. Mobile collection events are a convenient way to dispose of household hazardous waste in a safe and responsible manner.
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 >>
