Dakota Data Shred from Sioux Falls will take care of the shredding. Remember, when you throw something in the trash, it is available to anyone willing to overlook the disgusting smells and textures of your trash. So a good rule of thumb is anything that has a signature, account number, social security number or medical and legal information should be shredded. Here are a few more suggestions: address labels from junk mail and magazines, ATM receipts, bank statements, copies of birth certificates, canceled and voided checks, credit card bills, investment documents, employee pay stubs, employment records, college ID’s, pre-approved credit card applications, receipts with checking account numbers, report cards, resume’s, tax forms, used airline tickets and utility bills.
 
Keep your identity safe and mark your calendar for Shred Days at First Dakota.
