Spring cleaning --- and free shredding
So, did you sort through your personal documents and cull anything unnecessary as Eileen Ambrose suggested in an earlier post?
Then you may be in need of some shredding assistance, to ensure some dumpster diver doesn't get their hands on your personal information.
The Better Business Bureau of Greater Maryland has teamed up with several partners including Equifax, Secured Shred and the National Association of Information Destruction* to offer free shredding during "Secure Your ID" day at BWI Marshall Airport on Saturday, May 3.
From 8 a.m. to noon, you can bring up to three boxes or bags of unneeded records and files to the corner of Aviation Boulevard and Elkridge Landing Road (across from the Shell station) to be shredded. Participants will also get advice for avoiding identity theft.
And as an added incentive for getting up early on a weekend ...
there will be free Krispy Kreme donuts for the first 500 shredders.
And if you're wondering, Secured Shred does recycle.
* This has got to be the greatest trade association name I've ever encountered. Information Destruction?! It sounds like an archnemesis organization in a comic book or something. I wonder if they sell t-shirts?
