AUSTIN, Texas - March 13, 2013 - PRLog -- Balcones Shred, a division of Balcones Resources in Austin, Texas, announced a “Shred Day” event on March 23rd, 2013 at the Round Rock Recycling Center located at 310 Deepwood Drive, Round Rock, Texas from 9am to 1pm.

The Round Rock Recycling Center has a long history of reliable, responsible and conscientious handling of recyclable materials and is always looking for new ways to serve the area residents. “When we saw the KEYE TV news report highlighting the dangers of improperly destroying documents, we knew we wanted to help,” said Meredith Grossfeld, Account Manager for Balcones Shred. “Most people do not have access to the level of secured document destruction we provide. The shredders you buy at the store just don’t cut it.” The news story highlighted the fact that if you place materials in the trash or recycling bin it has the potential to end up in the hands of identity thieves or others, unless they are shredded properly.

Residents and local businesses can bring their materials to be destroyed to government-level standards and know that the resulting shredded paper will be recycled by Balcones and returned to good use. “The advantage of using Balcones Shred for document destruction  is that your documents are being handled with  the highest level of care and security as evidenced through our NAID certification. You also get the added bonus of knowing the destroyed papers are being recycled versus dumped into a landfill,” said Matthew Hudson, Exec Vice President of Balcones Resources. “A piece of paper we shred for you at this event might end up as page in your child’s text book next fall.”

The list of items you should bring includes papers with personal information, tax returns, bank records, invoices, receipts, medial records or any paper you feel is confidential. Residents may also bring media storage devices like hard drives to be shredded. “Just because you deleted the information on the hard drive does not mean it is erased,” shared Ryan Bell, General Manager of Balcones Shred in Austin, Texas. “Many people take old hard drives and recover the data without the owner knowing – until they get a bill for online purchases they did not make.”
