Do you have sensitive info that you need to get rid of, but don’t own a paper shredder? How unfortunate. Luckily, the U of I Community Credit Union will happily take up to five boxes of documents off of your hands, and shred them for free as part of their annual Shred-a-palooza event.
The event will take place April 29th, from 10 am to 2 pm at UICCU’s First Street branch, and will also feature food. For more information, here’s what UICCU had to say:
