OCCU offers free shredding of personal documents at annual event

Eugene, Oregon – OCCU’s 2026 Shred Fest, an annual event where community members are invited to have personal documents shredded for free, will be held at OCCU's Corporate offices at 2880 Chad Drive, Eugene, on Saturday, May 30, beginning at 9 a.m. and running until the on-site shredding trucks are full or 2 p.m., whichever comes first. 

Community members can drop off up to three banker-size boxes of documents containing personal information, like bank statements and tax records 

While the event is free, participants are encouraged to bring a donation of non-perishable food to be passed along to FOOD for Lane County to help support community members in need. 

OCCU members can also drop off up to three banker boxes of sensitive documents for shredding at any OCCU branch between May 4 and June 8. Interested members can find their closest branch on OCCU's locations directory. 

This free event is a part of OCCU’s efforts to prevent fraud in their service area. By destroying documents that contain sensitive information, community members can avoid the risk of that information being used maliciously. 

For more information, see the event on OCCU’s website, here.
