Marietta residents looking to securely dispose of old documents have an opportunity to do so, free of charge. The City of Marietta, in collaboration with Keep Marietta Beautiful, announced a community event dedicated to safe document destruction. This event is slated for the morning hours of Saturday, March 8, at the conveniently located Elizabeth Porter Park, as per the City of Marietta's announcement.

The free document shredding event aims to provide residents with peace of mind, as they can watch their sensitive paperwork be shredded on-site. Scheduled from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM, the gathering is not only about protecting personal information but, also acts as a reminder of the ongoing efforts to keep the community tidy and responsible in its waste management. While there's no fee for the service, the organizers are open to receiving donations which will funnel back into future local events and programs.

Those interested in taking advantage of this shredding service should remember that only paper documents are eligible for destruction. More details and instructions can be gathered by reaching out to the City of Marietta at 770-794-5609 or by emailing [email protected].
