LAFCU invites public to Shred Day May 1

Secure destruction of personal information critical in prevention of identity theft

LAFCU is offering free document shredding to the public at the credit union’s Shred Day, Saturday, May 1, 10 a.m. to noon.

A mobile shredding truck will be at the LAFCU West Lansing Branch, 106 N. Marketplace Blvd., for on-site shredding. Each person may drop off up to four Bankers Boxes of materials to be shred. Masks will be required and social distancing measures will be in place.

“LAFCU offers this free service to the public to help keep our community safe from identity theft,” said Alyssa Troub, marketing and communications specialist. “The timing is good for those who have been cleaning out files during the pandemic.”

Recommended materials are documents that have identifying information for financial, medical and Social Security accounts. This includes receipts, address labels, bills, insurance claims, tax forms and checking, savings and loan statements.
