WSAV's SPRING Identity Safe Recycling Event the Largest Yet.
The May, 2012 Identity Safe Recycling Event expanded again, this time to 3 different locations. Savannah at the Chatham County Resource Conservation Education Center at 1321 Eisenhower, Bluffton at Palmetto Goodwill on Highway 278 and downtown Statesboro at Sea Island Bank at 2 East Main Street. Nearly 50,000 lbs. of your documents were shredded (almost 25 tons) to keep you and your family's identity and finances safe. Thanks for joining in to make it another great 3 On Your Side effort.
Look for the 16th Identity Safe Recycling Event coming up in the fall of 2012.
