Shred Events
Does Georgia United provide paper shredding events?
Effective January 1, 2022, Georgia United will no longer offer free paper shredding events. Although we have hosted these events for many years, the rising costs and scheduling challenges during the pandemic have caused us to discontinue this service.
If shredding events are no longer available, what are other ways to protect my personal information?
The best way to reduce the risk of identity theft or your information falling into the wrong hands is to go paperless and enroll in E-Statements. This free service allows you to receive your member statements securely in Online Banking.
Where can I find other shred events in my area?
We encourage you to google “free shred events” or contact your county’s waste management service for similar services in your area.
