Secure Document Shred Day Oct. 22

The City of La Grange, the La Grange Police Department and the La Grange Citizens Police Academy are pleased to announce that, in conjunction with the Spring Clean Up, the city will host a “Secure Document Shred Day” on Saturday, Oct. 22.

This event is being held to assist citizens in shredding documents which might have confidential information on them. The shred event will be held at the La Grange Police Department located at 243 South College from 9 a.m. until noon on Oct. 22. Mobile, on-site paper shredding ensures that all discarded information is protected from unauthorized use, eliminating the possibility of fraud or identity theft.

This is a free service to the customers of La Grange Utilities. Anyone bringing items to be shredded are asked to bring a City of La Grange utility bill with you in order to participate in this program.

Items accepted are paper, magazines, credit cards, and documents with staples, binder clips, or paperclips.

Items that will not be accepted are boxes, cardboard, floppy disks, hard drives, CD’s, and USB drives.

If you have any questions, call City Hall at (979) 968-5805 or the La Grange Police Department at (979) 968-5806.
