Community Shred Day with Keep Fremont Beautiful

Fremont residents will get a free chance to shred sensitive papers on Saturday, April 25, at Pinnacle Bank’s east-side branch. (keepfremontbeautiful.org) Keep Fremont Beautiful lists the event for 12:30 to 2:30 p.m. at Pinnacle Bank, 1520 E. 23rd Ave. The group says the limit is two boxes, or about 50 pounds, per vehicle. (keepfremontbeautiful.org) The shred day is a partnership between Keep Fremont Beautiful and Pinnacle Bank, and local coverage in the Fremont Tribune says it is open to Fremont residents. Pinnacle Bank operates a branch at 1520 E. 23rd St. in Fremont.

The Federal Trade Commission says destroying documents with personal information lowers the risk of identity theft. (consumer.ftc.gov) Nebraska law treats identity theft as a criminal offense when someone uses another person’s identifying information without consent for an unlawful purpose. The Nebraska Attorney General’s office warns that identity theft can take years to sort out. (nebraskalegislature.gov) (protectthegoodlife.nebraska.gov) Keep Fremont Beautiful has made community cleanup and recycling events a regular part of its 2026 calendar, with the shred day followed by a downtown cleanup on May 14 and a citywide cleanup on June 18. The nonprofit is based at 152 E. 6th St. in Fremont. (keepfremontbeautiful.org) (chamber.fremontne.org) For Fremont households, the practical takeaway is simple: sort old statements, bills, and other paper records before April 25, then bring no more than two boxes to the Pinnacle Bank site on East 23rd Avenue.
