Shred Fest Is At Prospect Park On Sunday

Got a stack of papers with sensitive personal information sitting around that you’ve been meaning shred? This is the weekend to do it!

Shred Fest, the city’s annual event to help New Yorkers prevent identity theft, is taking place at Prospect Park (the entrance at Prospect Park West and 3rd Street) on Sunday, May 18 from 10am-4pm.

You’ll be able to shred papers containing personal information for free using a shredding truck, and they’ll have free tips on identity theft prevention.

Just be sure to arrive early — the shredding truck will be available until 4pm, or until it fills up, which may be sooner.
