AAI SecureDocs(SM) to Offer Free Shredding Services to the General Public as Part of a National Consumer Awareness Initiative

MINNEAPOLIS, May 1 PRNewswire-USNewswire — AAI SecureDocs(SM) will join over 120 other secure shredding companies across the country who are providing free shredding services to the general public during an event that will highlight the importance of protecting discarded personal information.

According to Robert Johnson, executive director of the National Association for Information Destruction, "studies have shown that most identity thieves obtain personal information they use to commit their crime from low-tech sources such as dumpster diving. Law enforcement agencies across the country at all levels strongly recommend that personal information be destroyed before it is discarded. AAI SecureDocs is doing a great public service by providing this service free as a means of promoting secure destruction throughout the year."

The event will be held on Saturday, May 3rd from 9:00 A.M. to 2:00 P.M. at 2708 Summer Street N.E. Minneapolis 55413. Members of the public may bring up to 10 boxes or bags of confidential materials to be destroyed free of charge.

The date of the event coincides with "Secure Your ID Days," a secure shredding event being co-sponsored across the country by the National Association for Information Destruction.
