Confidential Documents
Marquette County Solid Waste Management Authority (MCSWMA) offers FREE, confidential document destruction to businesses and residents.
Bring your documents to MCSWMA and they will be securely transported to the destruction site. Processing is by appointment only, call by 3:00 p.m. the day before. Receipts available at no cost.
Your sensitive documents will be sent to a recycling facility in Green Bay where they will be washed and dissolved into paper pulp, treated and dried to create new paper.
Preparing Your Documents
The documents are required to be in a sealed cardboard “copy paper” or banker’s boxes. Unsealed containers will not be accepted.
Please remove all metal larger than paperclips and minimize plastic.
DO NOT include any items other than paper.
Certificate of Destruction
There is a $25 charge if you would like copies of all applicable processing documents including individual Certificates of Destruction and manifests from our secured holding containment, secured transportation, and final document destruction in a secured, bonded facility.
The single $25 charge for documentation covers as many boxes as you would like to bring in a day and is not required for secure disposal.
The $25 charge can be paid by check only payable to Marquette County Solid Waste Management Authority.
