I’m inviting residents of the 45th District to take part in a free Community Shred Event on Saturday, May 16, to safely dispose of sensitive documents and help protect against identity theft.
I’m proud to partner with Mayor Steve Johnson to host this event in Machesney Park. It’s a simple and secure way to get rid of old paperwork like bank statements, tax returns, bills, receipts, credit card applications, and outdated medical records.
The event will run from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at the Machesney Town Center, located at 8702 N. 2nd Street. Shredding will take place on-site, giving residents peace of mind that their personal information is properly destroyed.
To keep things moving efficiently, each vehicle will be limited to two banker boxes of paper documents, and electronics will not be accepted. The event will end at noon or once the shredding truck reaches capacity.
If you have questions or need more information, please contact my office at (815) 232-0774.
