City Hosts Free Shredding Event for Residential Utility/Trash Customers

The City of Heath will host a free shredding event for Heath residential utility/trash customers on Saturday, October 2 from 8 a.m. to noon at Towne Center Park. Please see the traffic flow below and bring a copy of a utility bill or your driver’s license for proof of eligibility. This service is available only to City of Heath residential utility/trash customers. The shredded paper will be recycled.

These items are not accepted by regular trash collection services and are prohibited in landfills.
