Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to remove staples and paper clips before dropping off documents at Shred Monkey?

No. Shred Monkey's industrial shredders handle staples, binder clips, rubber bands, and paper clips — no pre-sorting required. Just bring your documents in boxes or bags and staff will handle the rest.

Does Shred Monkey accept walk-in drop-offs without an appointment?

Yes. The facility at 2364 N Butler Ave accepts walk-in drop-offs Monday through Friday, 9am–4pm. For service outside those hours, call (317) 916-1800 to arrange an appointment.

What happens to the shredded paper — does it go to recycling or to a landfill?

All shredded paper is sent directly to paper mills for recycling. Shred Monkey does not landfill shredded material, and they provide a Certificate of Destruction confirming proper disposal.
