Every year an estimated 5 million, or 1 in 10 older Americans, experience elder abuse,
neglect, or exploitation.
We want to help adults 50+ prevent financial exploitation by safely disposing of personal documents with identifying information.
Please join us for a FREE shred event hosted by Middle TN Elder Watch Committee and Shred on the Run
Location: Trevecca Tower 60 Lester Ave. Nashville, TN 37210
Date/Time: Saturday, May 21, 2022, 9:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
This event is limited to adults 50 years and older with no more than 4 boxes or bags. The free service is not intended for commercial purposes. Some items people may consider shredding include credit card statements, old checks, tax returns, and any information a thief can use to steal your identity. You do not need to remove paperclips or staples.
A prescription medication drop box will also be available to anyone wanting to safely dispose of any unneeded medication. This will be a drive-thru drop-off event. Participants should follow signs to drive into the parking lot. Volunteers will remove shred items and unneeded prescriptions from your vehicle so you do not have to park or get out of your car. This is a first-come, first-serve event. Once the shred truck is full no other shred items will be accepted.
