Here are some tips from Accurate Document Destruction Company, a division of Groot Recycling and Waste Services, on handling personal documents.

• Shred all personal documents before throwing them away.
• Do not carry your Social Security card with you.
• Make sure your credit cards are arriving on time. If not, it could mean someone has taken over your account and changed your billing address to cover his tracks.
• Only do Internet business with established, reputable companies.
• Never give personal information over the phone, the Internet or through the mail unless you know with whom you are dealing.
• Be cautious about where you leave personal information in your home, especially if you have roommates or employ outside help.
• Get a police report if your wallet is stolen or lost.
• Do not put sensitive outgoing mail, such as a credit card application, in an outside mailbox.
• Check your credit report at least once a year.
