Next date: Saturday, October 05, 2024 | 08:00 AM to 12:00 PM

Note: As of July 2024, free monthly paper shredding hours are 8 a.m. to noon. 

• Paper shredding is held the first Saturday of the month unless that is a three-day holiday weekend; if a holiday weekend, shredding shifts to the next Saturday.
• As of July 2024, free monthly paper shredding hours are 8 a.m. to noon.
• For Arlington County, Virginia residents only (sorry, businesses are not allowed).
• Limit of two boxes (no larger than 18 in. x 11 in. x 10 in.), or two paper bags per customer.
• Acceptable: paper (including staples, paper clips), checks/checkbooks.
• Unacceptable: magazines, catalogs, credit cards, three-ring binders or phone book-sized material.
• Already shredded paper accepted; do not place shredded paper in blue recycling carts as it is too unwieldy for regular sorting.
• Residents are no longer able to view the shredding process and give tacit approval by entering the drive-thru routing. 

   

Inert materials include:

• Asphalt
• Ceramic tile
• Concrete
• Earth
• Masonry block
• Rock
• Sand

Only a small pickup truck load or 3 cubic yards of material can be accepted. Brush material is not accepted in the Inert Material Drop-Off Program.

This event is part of a series (01/02/2016-06/04/2022, the first Saturday of the month).
