Free Shredding Event

The Better Business Bureau of Southern Colorado is hosting a free document shredding day on Friday, May 1 from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM in the parking lot of the First Baptist Church of Colorado Springs at 317 East Kiowa. The parking lot is on the corner of Kiowa and Wahsatch Avenue – just west of our office at 25 N. Wahsatch Avenue.

KKTV - 11 News and Iron Mountain Inc., an information protection and storage company, are co-hosting the event known as “Letter Rip” Day. The event was created in 2005 to give the public an opportunity to safely dispose of personal and financial documents as a way of preventing identity theft.

The public is invited to bring as many as five boxes of documents to be shred by Iron Mountain’s shredding truck. Plastics, cardboard, newspapers, binders and magazines cannot be accepted. Those who wish to bring more than five boxes will be charged $5 for each additional box.

We are asking all participants to bring a non-perishable food item that will be donated to the Care and Share Food Bank.
