“Properly disposing of materials that contain personal information is one of the best ways to guard against identity theft, and Illinois State Bank encourages our neighbors and friends to take advantage of this free service during our seventh annual Community Shredding Day,” said Lauri Lunde, district manager of Illinois State Bank. “We collected more than 65,000 pounds of documents for secure shredding last year and as people clear out closets, desk drawers and boxes, we hope to collect even more outdated documents and electronics for disposal.”
All shredded materials will be recycled after collection. Tips on how to prevent identity theft, how to decide what to keep or toss, and additional information about Community Shredding Day are available on the bank’s website (shredit.illinoisstatebank.com) and at any Illinois State Bank office.
