Keeping personal paperwork with account numbers, PIN numbers and other sources of identification could lead to identity theft. Avoid becoming a victim and bring any personal documents to the City's next Shredathon, where they will be shredded for free on site.
The City's next Shredathon event is scheduled for Saturday, October 15 from 9 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. in front of City Hall, 9551 W. Sample Road. Please note that there is a limit of five boxes per person. Each additional box of paperwork will be accepted for a $5 donation toward the Special Olympics. Please refrain from bringing paperwork in plastic bags. Once the truck is full, no other paperwork will be accepted. The Shredathon is co-sponsored by the Coral Springs Police Department, Coral Springs Seniors and Law Enforcement Together, and Data Shredding Services of Ft. Lauderdale. There is no cost to drop off documents. For more information, call 954-344-1833.
Shredding papers is a lot of work, but in the end, what it saves you in time trying to re-build your precious identity is worth all of this up front effort.
