On last year’s Shredding Day, mortgage loan officer Greg Kroll and teller Razalyn Brock helped a long line of customers at East.
It’s time to get destructive — in a good way! Our 13th annual free Community Shredding Day will take place on May 4. Members of the public who want to get rid of sensitive documents can dispose of them safely and securely at North Shore Bank branches, to prevent identity theft.
All branches will accept small amounts of paper materials for destruction, but anyone with a lot of documents (a bag or more) should visit one of the locations that will have a special shredding truck on site:
- Allouez
- Appleton Northland
- Atwater Elementary (2100 East Capitol Drive, Shorewood)
- Brookfield Square/Corporate
- Howard-Suamico
- Kenosha Main
- Regency
- Southridge/Greendale
Last year, we took in over 40 tons of paper to shred.
Shredding Day will take place rain or shine. All shredded materials are recycled after collection. Acceptable material for shredding includes paper with staples and paper clips. Unacceptable materials include three- or four-ring binders, folders with the long skinny metal strips to hold papers in place, and black metal spring clips or anything similar. These items need to be separated and thrown in the trash or reused. More information on preventing identity theft, reducing your financial paper trail, and deciding what to keep or toss is available at shredit.northshorebank.com.
