Alpharetta residents seeking a safe method to discard documents can take advantage of a shredding event Saturday. The event will be from 9 a.m. to noon in the Alpharetta Crossing Shopping Center at Haynes Bridge Road and Old Milton Parkway. There is a five-box limit per resident.

Eco Shredding, a co-sponsor, is requesting participants bring one can of food per box brought for shredding. All food items will be dispersed to neighbors through the North Fulton Community Charities Food Bank.
