If you need to get rid of sensitive papers, take them to the 'Secure Your ID Day' this weekend in Reno.

From 9 a.m. to noon on Saturday, October 17th you can take unwanted documents to the Atlantis Casino west parking lot, to have them shredded free of charge.

You can bring up to 3 boxes of documents to shred. 

Documents should be removed from binders, but staples, paper clips, CDs and floppy discs are okay to shred.

The Better Business Bureau says Nevada ranked fifth highest for identity theft per capita in 2019, according to the Federal Trade Commission. Across the United States, identity fraud losses grew 15% last year to $16.9 billion according to Javelin Strategy & Research.
