Westport Public Paper Shred Day September 25 at Greens Farms Train Station

First Selectman Jim Marpe announced today that Westport will hold its twelfth annual community shred day on Saturday, September 25, 2021 from 9am-12pm at Greens Farms Train Station (Note: new location).

Residents may shred up to eight paper bags (bags recycle too), or three boxes (12 inches by 18 inches), per household.  Each car will be charged $5.

Proof of Westport residency is required. 

“This is an opportunity for Westporters to dispose of personal, confidential and sensitive papers, such as bank statements, cancelled check, credit card statements, tax papers, and medical records by watching their papers shredded on-site” said Marpe.

“Document shredding is safe, secure, and confidential.  This event helps insure protection against identity theft, in addition to cleaning file cabinets.  Our environment also benefits since all material will be recycled.”
