DPW Document Shredding for DC Residents
Briar Patch Shredding & Recycling partners with DPW for document shredding for all Washington DC Residents. This service is free to all DC Residents! DPW collects personal documents to be shredded on the First Saturday of each month at the Benning Rd Transfer Station (3200 Benning Rd, NE) from 7 am to 2 pm.
No papers will be accepted for shredding except on the first Saturday of the month because DPW cannot secure these documents without the shredding contractor on site. For more information, please visit dpw.dc.gov.
Reviews
"I am representing Bowie State University, and this company performed a campus-wide shredding event. They were responsive with communications in a timely manner, professional, the crew was on time, prepared, and ready to meet the manual demands for an entire campus. The cost was also very reasonable. This company is highly recommended."
