“Nice” reminder Cash! You need to make sure and shred certain documents before you dispose of them to prevent naughty people from getting their hands on your personal information. We recommend you shred ATM receipts, bank statements, paycheck stubs, credit card statements and receipts, utility bills or any other household financial information, copies of personal documents and photographs, tax information and returns when disposing of them. Remember that you do need to keep financial information for a certain amount of years in case you are questioned about your returns. Call us if you have questions on how long to keep certain documents.
