Shred and e-Cycle Event


Big Blue Truck is driving change in our community and your gently used clothes can make a difference. 

Our free Shred and eCycle Event is back! As part of BECU's green sustainability initiative, we're inviting members to clear their clutter and reduce their carbon footprint in an environmentally responsible way. Join our Shred Events in Tukwila, Federal Way, Everett or Bellingham.

At each event, we'll also collect cash, nonperishables, food, clothing and household items to support a nonprofit in your neighborhood.

All events will run from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., and we'll shred until the trucks are full

Main Event Highlights

  • Bring up to three grocery bags or two banker boxes of sensitive documents for us to shred at no cost to you.

  • You may also bring old TVs, desktop computers, computer monitors, laptops and cellphones for safe disposal. A small recycle fee may apply to some electronic items including printers and VCRs.

  • Bring cash, nonperishable food, clothing or small household items to support neighbors in need. Neighborhood nonprofits will be on-site to collect your donations.

  • In collaboration with Bike Works, our Tukwila location will accept bike donations that will be refurbished for children and adults in need.

Why Donate? 

  • Support for Disabilities: Your donations fund Northwest Center's programs serving kids and adults with disabilities. 

  • Environmental Impact: Each garment reused means one less in the landfill, helping create a greener planet for all of us. 

How to Participate: 

  • Clean Out: Look through your wardrobe for clothes you no longer wear. 

  • Drive Over: Bring your items  

  • Drop Off: Our friendly team will be ready to accept your donations.
