As a responsible member of the recycling industry The Paper Exchange believes strongly in educating and offering its services to your residents and customers. Partnering with municipalities and local businesses gives us the opportunity to promote recycling initiatives and allows you to show your concern for the environment.

• The Paper Exchange will provide on-site shredding for your residents/customers with our brand new state of the art Shred Tech mobile shredding trucks. The mobile units can shred 7,000 lbs. per hour and by utilizing a cross-cut shred ensures the most secure destruction process available.
• Residents/customers will have the opportunity to bring up to five (5) boxes or bags of confidential items to the truck at the designated date and time of your choice.
• The Paper Exchange requests a three (3) hour minimum rental commitment for our mobile unit. We will provide a driver and a helper to unload the confidential material from your resident's/customer's vehicles.
