Community Shredding Events | Shred on Site helps destroying documents

Community Shred Day

This year, we will not be hosting our annual Community Shred Day.

Over nearly 10 years, we raised $14,500 for the Elwood Life Saving Club and shredded documents for hundreds of attendees. In that time, we also recycled over 26 tonnes of shredded documents, which were transformed into new products like pizza boxes and egg cartons.

We are proud of the positive impact these events had on both the community and the environment.

A huge thanks to Community Bank Elwood, City of Port Phillip Seniors Festival and Victorian Seniors Festival for their ongoing supporting of these events. Thanks also to Chisholm & Gamon Property for promoting the fundraiser with signage around the Elwood area.

We are grateful for the community’s enormous show of support for the Elwood Life Saving Club and the lifesaving services it provides.

To see how the Community Shred Day works, see news coverage on Channel 10, SBS, ABC and 7.

The annual Community Shred Days over the years have raised over $14,500 for Elwood Life Saving Club and over 26 tonnes of paper has been shredded and recycled! All the Community Shred Days have provided an opportunity for the community to bring their confidential documents to be shredded as they can watch it being done on the CCTV truck monitor. They brought unwanted bills, bank statements, old tax returns and other personal information. All shredded paper is then 100% recycled.

GARY P.

To start with, I entered details online and received a prompt response to my request for a quote to securely shred our documents, which filled a large wheelie bin. Appointment date set and timeslot was notified two days in advance of pickup. Polite and friendly driver of on-site shredding truck arrived within booked time slot. Within about 10 minutes the job was completed. Paid the driver with credit card. Happy with that!

Temani A.

Great service from start to finish. Very pleased with how easy it all was. Would definitely use again and recommend to others.

Richmond U.

Very efficient, on time and clear in what I could and not dispose of with them.

Don’t leave those boxes of old tax documents sitting in your (or your parent’s) attic. Call the team at shred on site.

Andrea T.

Super efficient service! Took less than 15 minutes to get all my boxes of paper loaded into the bin and shredded. 10/10 would recommend - will definitely get them back for future cleanouts

Fatha A.

Very friendly team, very reliable and on time and cost effective.

Christina C.

Shred on Site were friendly from the start when I first rang. They came at the appointed time, helped load the documents into their truck and showed us how to watch their demise on the television monitor. It certainly boosts one's confidence into the confidentiality to see them actually shredded. I would strongly recommend them - indeed I already have to a friend faced with having to destroy documents belonging to her deceased husband.

John W.

Can't speak highly enough of Shred on Site. Flexible and helpful with appointment times, arrived on time with a smile and a great experience. Highly recommended. 👍🏼

Michael S.

Helen C.

Professional, friendly, efficient, and fantastic communication. Will absolutely be using this service again.

Anthony B.

I have recently retired from a health care profession and and had stored a significant number of boxes of paper detailing patient details and my company admin details. These cannot be dumped intact at your local rubbish dump.Shred-On-Site were easy to contact, informative, able to attend within a week, attended on time - and were cheaper in cost than the approximate quote when I booked the visit to shred.I was very pleased with the result, organisation and professionalism - and recommend their business highly.

K J.

Downsizing after 50 years in our family home preparing to enter a retirement village, we had a 'mountain' of tax, superannuation and personal papers to dispose of securely. The volume was way beyond my small shredder.I was most impressed with the booking procedure, the equipment and the operator. The whole operation is highly professional.

Incredible customer service, communication, timing and low cost from Andrew and team. Do not look anywhere else. They were able to accomodate all my requests for 20+ bins of drawing and office documents from the closure of an Architecture practice, including a van full of IT equipment. All booked, quoted and completed within the same week during the last week of Dec no less.

Robert R

As a retired Marriage Celebrant, I had much personal information in relation to hundreds of former clients, which needed to be securely disposed destroyed. I didn't have enough to justify a truck coming to my house, so I took the documents to the Shred On Site office and met very helpful Joshua who organised their destruction. I definitely recommend this company, and will use their services again in the future.

Robert R

I could not recommend this service more highly! 8 years of tax returns, personal medical docs was weighing us down. Shred On Site were incredibly accommodating on dates and times and literally provide service at your front door. The price point was excellent also. Was like a Marie Kondo 'spark joy' moment. Thanks so much, Lisa & Steve

Cheryll M.

We were very happy with the Shred on Site Service. We had several boxes of material to be shredded. Mike arrived on time and cheerfully tipped everything in to a Shred on Site Bin and promptly wheeled it to his truck. The material was being shredded as Mike filled out his invoice and the job was paid for. Very Efficient service, I would without any hesitation use their service again. Thanks Mike for an excellent, positive experience.

Ken M.

Excellent service. Arrived on time. No need to sort paper , plastic or ring binders. All shredded while you watch. Great way to get rid of those old personal files

Jason G.

Service is exactly as advertised. Easy connection to set up an appointment. Appointment made next day with text reminder and call on approach - very helpful in getting boxes ready for destruction. Thought I only had 2 boxes - after the team members arrived, I realised I had 5 which was no problem for them to accomodate. Out of date but sensitive documentation which they handled and shredded appropriately. Cost was very reasonable, even with the unplanned extras. Service - both from the admin office and team members who arrived - was excellent. I will be using them again for future document shredding and their expanded service offering covering electronic waste, knowing that it will be handled sensitively and efficiently.

Jason G.

Sandra D.

Great service, we used to use this company for our business shredding when we lived in Melbourne. We now live in a coastal town but were able to meet the truck on it's mobile rounds and have our shredding down in about 5 minutes! Extremely convenient, friendly and easy to organise.

lesley H.

This was so easy to arrange and communication with company was spot on. Everything was as promised. It was cheaper as a one off to take our documents to a site where they had a regular commitment. A quick call to say they would be there in 20 mins. and it was all done. Wouldn’t hesitate to use again or recommend.

JM C

Awesome service- awesome business creating local sustainable practice that benefits the environment and the community.
