“We really missed seeing our community out last year due to the pandemic and are excited to welcome people back and help them securely dispose of their sensitive documents and electronics,” said Ryan Lind, RCU’s Novato branch experience manager. “Shredding old financial documents and other confidential paperwork is one of the best measures people can take to protect themselves from identity theft.”
