Senior citizens will have a chance to dispose safely of sensitive documents and outdated medications May 20 and 21.
On those two days, the Sartell Police Department will have “First-Shred,” a professional shredding business at the department to shred documents that can include copies of credit applications, insurance forms, physician statements, blank checks and bank statements, expired charge cards and credit-card offers received in the mail.
The service will be free to anyone ages 55 or more.
In addition, the department will accept any and all used medications for safe disposal, but absolutely no sharps (needles) will be accepted.
The times for the service are from 11 a.m.-2 p.m. Wednesday, May 20 and 4-6:30 p.m. Thursday, May 21.
The service is sponsored by Seniors and Law Enforcement Together, an organization of seniors and police officers.
