Washington Trust Bank is organizing a Shred Day event on Friday, September 26, from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm at the Pullman Financial Center.

This event is designed to provide a secure method for individuals to dispose of sensitive documents, thereby contributing to identity theft protection. Participants are encouraged to bring documents for safe destruction at no cost.

Attendees may bring up to one legal-size box filled with items such as:

– Documents containing personal information (e.g., bank account or social security numbers)
– Bank statements that are older than one year
– Bills
– Canceled or voided checks
– Junk mail
– Preapproved credit card offers
– Tax documents that are older than three years.
