The Richardson Citizens Police Academy Alumni Association’s (RCPAAA) fall electronics recycling and document shredding event is taking place soon, so if you haven’t been collecting materials, now is a good time to start. All types of electronics are accepted with the exception of old tube-style TVs and bulky CRT computer monitors. Note that “paper shredding” means shredding sensitive documents; non-sensitive paper such as magazines and newspapers belong in the City’s weekly recycling pickup. (Also note that if you shred your own paper at home, the shreds belong in the trash, NOT recycling blue bags.)
RCPAAA supports the Richardson Police Department (RPD) by enhancing awareness and appreciation of the department within the community, publicizing its services and accomplishments and developing partnerships. The money raised from the recycling/shredding event is used to sponsor year-round initiatives in support of the department. These include things like providing meals and snacks during the holiday season and other activities designed to support the well-being of RPD officers and staff.
