Shaimos Pickup: A Respectful Way to Dispose of Holy Books and Papers

Shaimos is a Hebrew term that refers to any holy or religious items that contain the name of God or verses from the Torah. Examples of Shaimos include old and used Jewish books (seforim), prayer books (siddurim), scrolls (megillot), or papers (gilyonot) with Torah teachings or commentaries.

According to Jewish law, Shaimos cannot be thrown away or discarded in a regular manner. They must be treated with respect and buried in a special place, called a genizah. This is to prevent them from being desecrated or damaged.

However, burying Shaimos can be a difficult and costly process for many people. That’s why we offer a convenient and affordable Shaimos pickup service. We will come to your home or office and collect your Shaimos in a respectful way. We will then transport them to a designated genizah, where they will be buried according to Jewish tradition.

Our Shaimos pickup service is available for individuals, families, schools, synagogues, and organizations. We charge a reasonable fee based on the weight and volume of your Shaimos. We also provide receipts and certificates of burial for your records.

If you have any Shaimos that you want to dispose of in a proper way, please contact us today. We will be happy to assist you and answer any questions you may have. Thank you for choosing Shaimos Pickup, the respectful way to dispose of holy books and papers.
