Residents simply pulled into the parking lot where DPW workers helped unload their boxes. The papers were placed into special upright containers that were taken to a slot in the shredder truck. The container was automatically pulled into the truck and shredded. Participants could witness the documents being shredded on a TV screen at the truck’s control panel. There was also a tent/table display set up with information about the Hasbrouck Heights Recycling Program. The new Satellite Recycling Drop Container which accepts cardboard, newspaper/magazines, co-mingle and e-scrap, was introduced. This event was hosted by the Hasbrouck Heights Recycling Program and their recycling vendor, Atlantic Coast Fibers. Recycling specialists were available to answer any questions. ###
