Why Shred?
Shredding is the perfect way to dispose of security-related items without tossing them in the trash where they can be found by someone else. Shredding gives peace of mind knowing your sensitive information is being handled with care.
On community shred days, organizations such as MSGCU partner with a shredding company to bring on-site shred trucks to specific locations. These mobile trucks have the tools and capacity to ensure every last piece of sensitive material is shredded and recycled without a trace of personal information left. And, if you’re interested, you can even wait for your shred to be completely disposed of by watching the truck cameras as it deposits into the shred machine.
Sensitive documents only, please.
While purging your documents, it’s easy to simply toss all your undesired papers to your shred pile. Since MSGCU’s Shred Day, and most community shred days, are intended for security-related documents only, non-sensitive materials can be disposed of with your local recycling company.
Here's a handy chart to help you determine to shred or not:
