ROYERSFORD, Oct. 10 -- State Rep. Joe Ciresi, D-Montgomery, will host a free community shred event from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 19 at Pottsgrove High School, 1345 Kauffman Road, Pottstown.

“My free shred event is an opportunity for residents to dispose of sensitive personal information such as Social Security numbers, banking information and credit card applications in a safe and secure way,” said Ciresi. “We’re here to help you safeguard your privacy and protect your information.”

District residents are invited to bring up to four boxes or bags of paper. Residents should remove large binder clips, spiral notebooks, x-rays, trash, or plastic.

Shredding important documents helps prevent identity theft and protects personal information from falling into the wrong hands. Documents containing Social Security numbers, bank information, or medical details can be misused by thieves to steal money, run up credit card bills, or commit crimes under someone else’s name.
