People’s Credit Union’s Middletown Branch at 858 West Main Road will be hosting a free Community Shred Day on Saturday, June 29th, from 9:00 am – 12:00 pm. People’s has partnered with Shred-it to safely and securely destroy sensitive information using Shred-it’s cross-cutting technology. Everyone in the community is invited to bring documents suitable for destruction, including:

• Financial Statements & Cancelled Checks

• ATM, Debit, Credit Card & Other Receipts

• Credit Card Statements

Please limit your documents to two boxes (maximum size 24” x 15” x 10”/55lbs) and be prepared to have the Shred-it team place the contents into their receptacles with empty boxes returned to you. The half-day free event provides a safe and secure way to dispose of personal and financial information.

“Financial and other sensitive information needs to be protected more than ever from identity theft and People’s Credit Union’s Community Shred Day is a great opportunity to ensure safe disposal of personal information,” stated Erine Lewis, Head of Risk for People’s. “We hope that providing this service free of charge will encourage members of the community to join in raising awareness about the importance of secure document disposal,” she added.
