Shredding events invite community members and clients to safely dispose of their personal documents.
Hosting a shredding event is a great way to raise awareness of your brand in the community, and reward your current clients. Record Nations can help you plan, market, and host a successful shredding event.
What Is a Shredding Event?
A shredding event is a day you set in advance. When a mobile shredding truck comes to your location and performs shredding for all your guests in the community.
Typically, a shredding event lasts a few hours (but the duration is up to you).
We have seen better results when the shredding is free to your guests, with donations being optional. Shred events are also most successful on weekends, when most people are free.
When you partner with Record Nations, we help you establish a thorough marketing plan well before the target date to make sure your event is successful.
