Free Community Shredding Event by MAFCU

Get rid of your unwanted paper, digital and electronic media and give back to the community. All paper shredding done on site. There will be free food and drinks. Come play the new MAFCU game for a chance to win a prize, or get a balloon animal made for the kids.

Bring a nonperishable food item for Manna Food Center and help fight hunger in Montgomery County.

For the first time we can also accept digital media (for off-site shredding) and electronics recycling.
