Free Shredding Event in Hammond, Indiana
Dover Chemical is putting on a FREE shredding event for any and all local residents to shred their documents to combat identity thefts.

Shred Day, shredding event, or shred-a-thon.. Whatever you choose to call it, they are all one in the same.
Essentially, a shredding event is a communal event thrown by a local organization or business to promote data protection and security through a mass shredding of any and all papers that are brought in.
Identity thieves and cyber criminals are on the lookout for confidential documents of unsuspecting victims to wreak havoc on their finances. A shredding event provides a solution to destroy all your sensitive documents and lessen the chances of losing your personal information to crooks.
Details on the Free Shredding Event
Dover Chemical of Hammond, Indiana has been gracious enough to provide a shredding event for anyone in the local area completely free of charge. Simply bring by your box (or two) of documents that need shredding and watch as a mobile shredding truck rips apart your papers to indecipherable remains.
Papers and items to bring to the shredding event include:
- Credit card statements
- Bank statements
- Cancelled checks
- Expired or cancelled debit/credit cards
- Pre-approved credit card applications and offers

While transporting these to the shredding event, make sure that they are stored in some sort of box that won’t spill over or break on the way. It would be a shame to lose all your confidential papers on the way to destroying them!
