CU Recycling's confidential shredding service is available to CU-Boulder campus departments only. Because of the high number of summer shredding requests, CU Recycling may not be able to pick up your materials immediately. We hope to be able to accommodate your request within two weeks.
If you wish to receive more immediate service, we can refer you to some off-campus shredding companies. Call 303-492-8308 for more information.
Sorry, at this time we cannot accept Credit Cards.
Boxes: Due to weight restrictions, boxes should not exceed 12" x 12" x 18" (dimensions of a standard copy paper box). Boxes should be sealed with tape and labeled "confidential" to assure confidentiality during transit to recycling facility destruction area. Because of limited space in our destruction area, CU Recycling cannot accommodate requests of more than 10 boxes or two carts per month per customer. For pick-ups larger than 10 boxes, see shredding state contract information.
Carts: 95 gallon plastic carts on wheels, including a limited number of lockable carts, are available upon request from CU Recycling for storage of confidential materials. Price is for collection and shredding. Limit 2 carts or 10 boxes per month per customer.
Pick-Up Schedule: Documents will be collected on next scheduled ^M recycling pick-up from your building, typically within the week. For next scheduled pick-up day, see recycling collection schedule.
Recycling Guidelines: Please see our sorting guidelines before boxing your materials.
