If you have been saving up papers to properly shred and dispose of, Friday, Oct. 14 is the day to get rid of those documents. Landmark National Bank in Great Bend is hosting a free shred day on Friday to dispose of the public’s personal documents.

The service will be offered from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the 1623 Main Street location. Shawn Powelson with Landmark National Bank said turnout has been good in the years past.

"The turnout varies from year to year, and the weather drives it too," said Powelson. "We typically have a pretty good turnout, definitely from our core customers that are used to us doing it. There's always room for more."

Anyone is allowed to make use of the free shred day on Friday, not just Landmark customers. Participants will take their documents to be shredded through the drive-through, and there is a limit of five boxes or bags per household.     

"The big truck that shows up here has plenty of room," added Powelson. "We'd be happy for as many people as possible to take advantage of it."
