TruNorth Bank To Host Free Peabody Paper Shredding Event

PEABODY, MA — North Shore residents needing to safely dispose of paper documents are invited to a free Shred Day at the TruNorth Bank location in Peabody next week.

The bank said customers and members of the community can bring up to two boxes of paper to the Peabody branch at 248 Andover Street for shredding at no cost on Sept. 26 from 9 to 11 a.m.

Shredding documents reduces the risk of identity theft from bringing old mail, receipts, statements or bills, canceled checks, pay stubs, medical records, or any other unwanted paper documents containing personal or confidential information.

Bay State Shredding, a professional document destruction company, will be on-site and can accept up to two boxes of documents per car.

No appointment is necessary.
