NAPO STL had a fun social immediately following the March 9 meeting. We enjoyed yummy Dewey's Pizza while chatting about all sorts of things. Good times!

Shredded paper is not accepted in city recycling.

Shredded paper (loose or in any kind of bag) should not be put in recycling dumpsters or recycling rollcarts. Shredded paper is too small and falls through sorting machinery.

Saint Louis City Recycles will be hosting an electronics recycling and secure document destruction event on March 28 from 8 - 11 am at 1640 S Kingshighway. City residents, with ID, can bring up to 2 banker’s boxes with documents to be securely transported, shredded and recycled.

Some UPS stores offer shredding services for a fee. Your bank or credit union may also offer shredding opportunities.

We were happy to help Barb pack and divest her stuff from a 3-bedroom home she'd lived in for 35 years, and prepared her things to move into a 2 br apartment with 1/4 the space. Most importantly: she's happy too! ("Saving her life" is a bit dramatic, but we did work hard and fast for her!)
