Shredding documents is one of the most secure ways to prevent identity fraud. Using a secure service like Shred-It ensures your private information stays safe from outsiders.

What to bring:

• Old Financial Documents
  If not needed for taxes, anything with financial information should be destroyed.
• Shipping Labels
  Shipping labels can have personal information including names and addresses.
• Photos
  Photos can be stolen and used for fake identification.
• Duplicates
  If information is saved on a computer or another document, copies should be shredded.

What NOT to bring:

• Cardboard tubes
• Hanging folders
• Ink cartridges and toners
• Hard Drives
  These require a special destruction process that will not be offered at Community Shred-it Events.
• Batteries
  Seek guidance from your battery’s producer to learn about secure disposal.
• Medical Waste/Syringes
  Attend your local Drug Take Back Day event to dispose of pharmaceutical waste and contact your local government to learn about other medical
  waste disposal options.

If you have questions, contact Newton Presbyterian Manor at 316-283-5400.
