HARRISBURG – State Rep. Jim Rigby (R-Cambria/Somerset) is hosting a free document shredding event for residents of the 71st Legislative District on Wednesday, Aug. 28, from 1:30 to 4:30 p.m. at the Richland Township Fire Department, 1321 Scalp Ave., Johnstown.

“I am glad to be providing this opportunity for my constituents to safely dispose of documents containing personal information, like Social Security, credit card numbers and more,” said Rigby. “Sadly, scammers utilize the information found on personal documents. By shredding what is no longer needed, we can better protect ourselves from becoming victims of scams and fraud schemes.”

There will be a limit of four boxes and/or bags per household and the event is limited to residential customers only (no businesses). Please remove any paper or binder clips prior to the event; staples are permitted.
