Why Shred

:: On site vs. Off site

The Shred-it Way:
Why an On site Shredding Service is More Secure Than Off site.

Why entrust your personal, confidential work materials to a countless number of transporters before they reach their final off-site shredding destination?

There are so many opportunities for error in the off site shredding service model—from the office’s paper collector to the truck driver to the many employees involved in the warehouse sorting and shredding process. Secure your information with Shred-it instead.

Shred-it collects your private materials and destroys them on the spot.

The security and privacy of your materials begins the moment they are deposited into your office’s Shred-it console. At your convenience, a Shred-it Customer Service Representative (CSR) unlocks the console and carries your materials to a waiting truck outside. Materials are shredded in the truck, behind bolted doors (although you are welcome to witness your confidential documents being destroyed). A certificate of destruction is then issued immediately that confirms the destruction of your confidential materials.

Shred-it’s secure process is vastly safer than having confidential materials picked up and transported for off-site shredding, as other companies do.

Locked security consoles keep materials safe from curious janitors or waste management employees when you’re not around. And your materials need not be entrusted to more than one company or person. A bonded, insured Shred-it CSR’s actions replace all duties otherwise assigned to your office’s paper collector, the driver of the truck carrying your confidential materials, plus the off-site shredding facility’s warehouse staff, paper sorters and shredders.

The fewer the steps, the more secure your materials are. So we welcome you to do it right, on site, with Shred-it document destruction services.
