Time to start gathering up all that paper you have piled up around the house. Metro Denver Crime Stoppers, FOX31, Channel 2 and Iron Mountain are joining forces for their annual Shred-a-thon on Saturday, May 20, 2023, from 8 a.m. to noon.

Donations are encouraged and go directly to support the mission of the Metro Denver Crime Stoppers.

Each car can shred up to three (3) trash bags/bankers boxes of documents. Volunteers on hand to unload you car.

Remove binders or other non-paper contaminants. Paperclips, staples, and window envelopes are acceptable.

Stay in your vehicle, but make sure that your trunk and back doors are unlocked and easy for volunteers to open quickly. Boxes and bags should be easy to lift to keep volunteers safe from lifting injuries.

Boxes, bags, and transport containers will be given back to you.
