This message brought to you on behalf of North Carolina Attorney General Roy Cooper.

Local sponsors are donating their time and resources to sponsor free shred-a-thons in your area. Identity Theft tips will also be available. Shred-a-thons are a perfect way to destroy old tax records, checks, employment records or credit applications. You do NOT need to remove staples and paper clips from the documents. It usually takes about 10 minutes to drop off your documents and get them shredded.
