E-PASS SHREDDING AND ELECTRONICS RECYCLING EVENT
Posted By: Lindsay HodgesRelease Date:1/12/2010
It's time for a fresh start! Get a leg up on Spring cleaning and help prevent identity theft by shredding those documents you’ve
accumulated and recycling electronics you are no longer using. E-PASS is sponsoring a shredding event Saturday, January 16,
2010, at the Colonial Plaza (2728 East Colonial Drive, Orlando, FL 32803) near the intersection of Primrose and Colonial. The
event is scheduled from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm in the parking lot area in front of where Circuit City was once located. Look for
the orange E-PASS tent. E-PASS will also be giving away goodies including certificates for a free E-PASS Mini sticker tag
(limited quantities apply).
This is a free event, open to everyone. Residents can bring their documents and watch as they are shredded. In addition,
participants can bring working and non-working electronics for recycling. Data will be destroyed as appropriate and a
certificate of destruction will be available. See below for accepted items. E-PASS is not responsible for any items dropped off
during this event.
The following electronics will be accepted, working or not working: desktop, tower, laptop computers; CRT, LCD, plasma
monitors/displays; televisions; printers/plotters; fax machines; telephone systems, switches; cell phones, PDAs, radios;
stereos; VHS/DVDs; video games; projectors, cameras; any kind of storage media.
For computers and other items like cell phones and PDAs, a private company will process the item for data destruction (factory
clearing cell phones and degaussing the sim cards; three pass electronic erasure and Department of Defense level sanitization of
hard drives) and provide the appropriate certificate of destruction. All identifying marks, stickers and labels are removed. If
media cannot be securely destroyed electronically, physical destruction is carried out at their facility.
*Note: Individuals wishing to participate should note that the Westbound 408 exit for Crystal Lake may be closed Saturday for
construction activities. Please use the Mills exit instead.
