Recycling Personal Documents
 The Solid Waste Agency of Northern Cook County (SWANCC) provides one-day document destruction events for residentially-generated paper, such as medical forms, bank statements, personal files, retired tax forms, etc. This event is open to any resident that lives in any SWANCC-member community -- you do not have to live in the community where the event is hosted. IDs will be checked. No materials from businesses, schools or institutions will be accepted.
