State Representatives Sheryl M. Delozier and Thomas Kutz, along with Senator Greg Rothman, are organizing a free identity theft prevention and document shredding event. The event is aimed at residents of Hampden and Silver Spring townships within their respective House and Senate districts.
Scheduled for Saturday, April 5, from 9 a.m. to noon, the event will take place in the Kohl’s parking lot located at 6444 Carlisle Pike in Mechanicsburg. The initiative provides a safe way for residents to dispose of sensitive documents securely.
The legislators issued a joint statement regarding the event: “We are pleased to work with Hampden and Silver Spring townships for the third consecutive year to help residents protect themselves from identity theft by providing a safe, secure and convenient way to dispose of documents.”
They also expressed hope that constituents would use this opportunity for spring cleaning while safeguarding personal information from potential fraudsters.
Residents are allowed to bring up to five boxes or bags per household. Items such as pre-shredded paper, three-ring binders, plastic, carbon paper, metal, food wrappers, and blueprints will not be accepted.
For further inquiries about the event, residents can contact Representative Delozier’s office at 717-761-4665, Representative Kutz’s office at 717-975-2235, or Senator Rothman’s office at 717-787-1377.
