What to do with old insurance records?

I go through my file cabinet every year or so to purge old documents. I made an incinerator of sorts from and old grill with screening to contain the floating embers. Then I spread the ashes in the grass and eventually mow the lawn and see the dust fly. Let somebody read those documents now!!! :LOL::LOL::LOL:
 

I’m well under way now, and finding it’s working best right now to tear off the sensitive parts or allocate certain pages for shredding and get the rest ready to trash. Blacking out a few things with permanent marker too as I go along.
My hardest files , saving the worst for last, are every scrap & sheet of paper having anything from my apt mgt or lease, and the medical stuff . Really great that the HIPPA and other laws requiring giving patients info are there, but it it sure does generate paper!
Thanks to all for sharing your ideas and methods
