Shredding event Saturday in Maine Township

Maine Township will be host a free document shredding event Saturday in its town hall parking lot.

Residents will be able to bring as many as three small grocery-type bags full of paper to shred. Opportunity Secure Data Destruction Co., a division of Glenkirk Enterprises, will perform the document shredding, and those who attend will be able to view the shredding on a television monitor on the side of the truck, officials said.

The event is scheduled from 9 a.m. to noon at 1700 Ballard Road in Park Ridge. For more information, contact (847) 297-2510.
