What types of documents should be shredded?

Asked a year ago
At MY Document Shredding, we highly recommend shredding any documents that contain sensitive or personal information. This includes financial statements, tax documents, medical records, legal documents, canceled checks, credit card statements, and any papers with your social security number or other identifying details. Additionally, it is wise to shred expired credit cards, insurance documents, old passports, expired identification cards, and any other outdated or no longer useful documentation to prevent potential identity theft or fraud. Remember that even seemingly harmless documents can be used to gather personal information, so it is always better to be safe than sorry. Our shredding services ensure the complete destruction and safeguarding of sensitive information, providing you peace of mind.
