To raise funds for the homeless and unhoused, The Blankets of Love Charity, in partnership with Shred-it, will host a shred day for residents of the cities of Augusta, North Augusta, Columbia County, Hephzibah, and Fort Eisenhower, to shred their confidential documents securely.
(Saturday, January 17, 2026, Augusta, GA) – The Blankets of Love Charity, in partnership with Shred-it, will be hosting a shred day for community residents of the city of Augusta, North Augusta, Columbia County, Hephzibah, and Fort Eisenhower, to shred their confidential documents securely on Saturday, January 17th from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the At Home Parking Lot, 1323 Augusta West Parkway, Augusta, GA (Across from WJBF News Channel 6). Rain or shine, the Shred Day will occur regardless of the weather.
Community members are encouraged to bring their unwanted confidential documents – including banking statements, old tax return files, medical records, credit card receipts, etc. – to be shredded on-site. Machine paper, letterhead, white tablet paper, computer printout paper, laser print paper, and other miscellaneous white paper and staples are accepted. VHS tapes, CDs, and binders will not be accepted for shredding.
The cost of shredding will be $5/box of paper. These boxes can be standard copy paper boxes or banker’s boxes. Larger trash bags of paper will cost $8/bag. With the industry average currently charging $30/box for shredding, this Shred Day offers a cost-effective way to have large amounts of paper shredded securely.
All payments will be made at the event in the form of ZELLE, credit card, cash, or a check written out to The Blankets of Love Charity. Additional donations will also be accepted at the event. All proceeds will go directly towards funding future community resource projects for the homeless and unhoused in all surrounding counties.
