Thank you to all who attended our April 14^th “I Recycle Phoenix” event at Desert Ridge Shopping Center. This was a record breaking event and unfortunately we were overwhelmed by the turnout. Our goal is to always minimize the wait times and give you the best service possible. Everyone there is a volunteer including the companies providing the shredding/recycling and we have never charged for our services. It was nonstop until 1pm. We shredded over 61,000 pounds of paper and 18,000 pounds of electronics were recycled.

Thank you again for your patience and understanding and check back in the summer for our fall and spring dates and locations.
