The Electronic Recycling Association (ERA) and Owen Sound Police Service are partnering for the second year in honor of Fraud Prevention Month, to help protect your private information through data destruction.
Join us for this event at the Sydenham Campus (1130 8th St E, Owen Sound, ON, N4K 5N8) on March 25th, 2023 from 10:00am to 2:00pm, where citizens are invited to bring unwanted electronic devices such as hard drives, computers, laptops, phones, tablets, tapes and other small devices storing sensitive data, where they will be securely destroyed OR wiped clean and re-used for FREE. Data storage devices will be destroyed on-site with the use of ERA’s shredding machine to prevent data being recovered from old equipment.
