DEER PARK, NY — Mangano Family Funeral Homes hosted its annual free paper-shredding event Oct. 3 at its Deer Park location, allowing Long Island residents to securely dispose of sensitive documents.
The event was designed to help residents protect their personal information against identity theft and fraud while clearing unwanted paperwork from their homes.
Participants were permitted to bring up to four bags or boxes of documents, which were shredded on-site by a mobile shredding truck. Residents could watch as their paperwork was destroyed.
The event is part of the family-owned funeral home's ongoing community outreach efforts. Mangano Family Funeral Homes has served Long Island families for more than 115 years.
"We are thrilled to offer this annual free shredding event so our neighbors can protect their identity and prevent fraud, clear out their clutter and help keep our community safe," said Sal Mangano, president of Mangano Family Funeral Homes.
