FREE shredding events in Orange County
Most free shredding events limit the number of boxes you can bring to 5. This helps ensure that everyone that shows up won’t have to wait hours in line to get their documents shredded. I’ve shredded at an event where a guy brought a box truck full of document boxes to be shredded. Everyone had to wait for him to unload and shred over 100 boxes!
Some city sponsored events have no limits and can generate long lines of vehicles and angry people. I avoid these free shredding events as it is a poor reflection on Shred Bull. The best free shredding events are sponsored by community organizations and local businesses who have rules to make sure everyone who attends leaves happy and satisfied.
Free events are only free to attendees, make sure to thank your sposors should you attend a free shredding event in southern california. Much of the time you also get a free donut and coffee:)

[Note: We bring a cart with us that holds 10 standard banker boxes worth of paper. This is what we use to get an accurate count, even if the boxes or bags are different sized or if some are only partially filled.]
Here are some helpful tips that you may want to put in your event announcement...to ensure everyone has their paper prepared for shredding.
>>That page basically says: Staples & paper clips are OK. Please no X Rays, no metal(no hanging folders, no 3 ring binders, no Spiral notepads, no Binder Clips, etc) as metal could cause a spark, which could catch the truck on fire, which would be bad. We assume the boxes are on street level(no stairs) and are easily accessible(no attics) If you are not sure, call or text me:)
Thank you again for choosing Shred Bull!
About Shredding Events Community shredding events are something that really do make neighborhoods safer. Once your trash hits the sidewalk, it’s public domain—and you run the risk of identity thieves getting your information and using it against you.
Does your city’s Free Shredding Event allow you to witness the shredding?
Witnessing the shredding is important, and the best way to ensure that your confidential documents are properly destroyed. This is why privacy laws like HIPAA require that patient information containing documents are shredded while the practice can watch.
Watch out for OFF SITE SHREDDING.
Often times community free shredding events are so over crowded that they cut corners and allow shredding companies to collect paper and shred it at some other location. They call this “off site shredding’. This is an unsafe practice.
Shred Bull does not participate in any event that does off site shredding and allows paper to leave the event un-shredded. Many of the city sponsored events allow this ‘off site’ pick up and shred later practice to take place, which is why you will not find Shred Bull participating in those free shredding events.
Any time you hire a shredding company ask if you can watch the shredding take place, if they don’t, find another place to shred your documents.
The price is $399 for 2 hours. Shred Bull® Shredding is the friendly secure shredding company
