The papers have to be shredded, and I'll be damned if I'm going to pay a paper shredding company to do it. I don't know how much it would cost, but even if it were free, I'd STILL want to do it myself. The papers are loan applications, credit reports, powers-of-attorney, loan documents, expired chattel loans, etc. etc. etc. from our old lending business.
One past seller accused my wife of transferring his title without his authorization. I was the settlement officer and Notary. The State Police came to my front door. I took the big hat man downstairs, found the file, showed the trooper the notarized power of attorney, and didn't go to jail. He said that we would have been arrested on the spot if the man wasn't full of bullshit.
This means I have to pick through the files and shred what needs to be shredded, but retain what needs to be retained. It is worse than just sitting there and shredding. SSN's credit reports, etc--- If that shit didn't get shredded prior to disposal and got out, we'd get the living shit sued out of us by anyone adversely impacted. So, I might as well stuff the shit in my attic if viable
🤣
