For the fifth year, Gone for Good has provided free monthly recycling and papershredding events for local residents in downtown Fairfield. This very popular event is open to all local residents, business and non-profits.

During 2018, Gone for Good  collected, shredded, and recycled 48,000 lbs. of confidential papers, recycled 32,000 lbs. of electronic waste, and repurposed 723 lbs. of used clothing.
