Shred Day

Join us on Saturday, June 14th from 9 AM to 12 PM at Town Hall for the Cornwall Chamber of Commerce’s Annual Going Green Recycle Day!

This is your chance to safely and responsibly dispose of unwanted items — and help protect our environment while you’re at it. We’ll be accepting:

Old electronics
Documents for shredding
Unused or expired medications
Eyeglasses
Clothing and textiles

Just pull up with your items — our dedicated volunteers will be on hand to unload everything for you!

New this year: The Cornwall Lions Club will also be collecting used crayons to be recycled into new ones — a fun and creative way to reduce waste!

Let’s come together to make a difference.
See you at Town Hall on June 14th!
