The Village is partnering with State Representative Camille Lilly to host a free Shred and Recycling Event on Saturday, August 18, from 9 AM to Noon in the parking lot of  the Franklin Park Police Station. Bring your old bills and personal documents to be shredded to protect your personal identity.  The shredding service is free and open to Franklin Park residents only and is not available for business use.

Two containers per person will be accepted. Residents cannot leave cardboard boxes at the event. Please remove all staples and clips.  Material for shredding will be accepted until the truck reaches capacity.

Electronic devices are prohibited by law from going into landfills. Drop-off your electronics at the event so they can be recycled properly! Items accepted include computer equipment, televisions, stereos, game consoles, DVD & VCR players, copiers and fax machines.

The Police will also be accepting unused and expired drugs including over the counter medication.
