Join us on Saturday, May 9, 2026 at our Schererville office from 10am to 12pm and bring your old documents for safe, on-site shredding. This event is a great opportunity to clear out clutter while ensuring your personal information stays out of the wrong hands.

We recommend bringing items such as:

  • Old bank statements
  • Credit card offers
  • Tax documents (older than 7 years)
  • Bills, receipts, and anything with personal information

What NOT to Bring

Please do not bring any of the following items:

  • Books, magazines or binders
  • CDs or floppy Disks
  • Checkbooks still attached to the booklet (the binder must be removed)
