Community Drive Thru Shred-It Event
Welcome to Tri Delta Transit’s annual community Shred-It Event page. We’re happy to bring you this event in conjunction with City of Antioch Environmental Resources, Republic Services, Mt. Diablo Resource and Recovery, the City of Antioch and the City of Oakley.
Following please find information on our Shred-It Event:
All large binder clips, plastic ring binding, bindings, and binders must be removed. Heavy folders are not accepted either.
Helpers will open your bags or boxes to review inside. If you have items on your materials, you may be asked to pull over, take all items off, and then pull back into the back of the line.
This is a drive-up event where you will enter at the Cypress driveway, wait in line in your vehicle (turn off car if can), then drive up to the truck.
Helpers will indicate which truck you are to pull up to.
Once you stop where the helpers tell you, please exit your vehicle safely. Give the helpers your shredding or indicate where your shredding is and which ones they are. Once the helpers review the materials, they will dump them into a bin for shredding.
If you want to watch your shredding be shredded, please let the helper know. You will need to pull your car over, exit the vehicle and walk to the far side of the truck to watch with the Shred-It employee.
ALL BAGS AND BOXES the shredding is brought it, must be taken away with you.
Unfortunately, we do not have the capacity to keep it and dispose of it.
The drive-thru Shred-It event starts at 9:00 am.
Cars will not be allowed to line up until all safety cones and precautions are in place.
Event is first come, first serve until the trucks are full.
Keep in mind that this could be anytime after 9:00 am. If large loads come, the trucks will reach capacity quickly.
If the truck is full, you will be asked to take all shredding home with you. Thank you.
If I live outside of Oakley, can I come to the Shred-It Event?
Tri Delta Transit serves Bay Point, Antioch, Brentwood, Pittsburg, Discovery Bay, Knighten, and Oakley, so shredding is accepted from those cities.
Is there a limit to the number of bags/boxes I can bring?
On average we accept 5-7 boxes, but quantity is somewhat dependent on number attending. Please be mindful that we are trying to help as many as we can in the community. We will try our best to accommodate shredding amounts. This year we will have a large amount truck and a regular amount truck. If there are no large amounts at times, then both trucks will take regular amounts.
Is parking available?
This year is a DRIVE-THRU event! When you come to the Oakley Park & Ride at 4300 Main Street, Oakley, please enter the Park & Ride by the driveway by the intersection of East and West Cypress (see map). Follow the cones to get in line. If the line is longer, if possible we ask you to turn off-and-on your car as to not idle, which is bad for the environment. The line will advance until you are stopped by the Shred-It Truck. Turn off your car, exit, get your shredding out, and show it to our helpers. They will clear you to put it into the shredding bin for Shred-It staff to load it into the truck. If you need assistance, you will need to guide the helpers to exactly what needs to be taken out of your vehicle. They will not touch anything that you do not indicate or hand them.
Will there be someone there to help me?
We have some staff on hand to help. Our staff will not touch or take anything out of your car without you indicating it or handing it to our helper.
Below please find an event map used for planning. This indicates the entrance, route and location of trucks for your information.
Tri Delta Transit reserves the right to change the map and event at will.
Thank you to our partners for their longtime support of this great community event.
