Safely dispose of sensitive documents and papers at the Wellesley Recycling and Disposal Facility (RDF) on Sunday, October 29. 

The annual fall document shredding event will take place from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. and is open to all Wellesley residents. 

Anyone participating in this event should follow these procedures:

  • This is a drive up event. All vehicles must have a valid RDF sticker, or be driven by a Wellesley resident.
  • Vehicle occupants should stay in the car.
  • Documents to be shredded must be clearly marked or distinguished (in a brown paper bag or disposable cardboard box) and placed in the trunk of the car, if possible. Documents may also be placed in the bed of a pickup, in a trailer, or in the rear most section of a van.
  • Residents can bring in any documents they would like to have destroyed. NO binders, plastic folders or metal can go through the shredding machine.
  • The documents will be removed by RDF staff and/or staff of the shredding company.
  • Documents are securely destroyed on-site in a mobile shredding truck.

 Please note: Residents can NOT bring home material after it is shredded.

Thank you for your cooperation.
