Premier Document Shredding

  • What is secure paper shredding?

    Secure paper shredding is an essential service for businesses aiming to protect client information, safeguard intellectual property, secure data obtained under non-disclosure agreements, and prevent corporate espionage. The improper handling of sensitive information can lead to severe consequences for both businesses and consumers. Many industries are legally required to destroy personal and patient information. Professional service companies should be aware of the specific legislation regarding safeguarding, retention, and destruction policies in their sector. For instance, medical and healthcare professionals are often required to destroy certain records on a daily basis.
  • Why outsource shredding services?

    Outsourcing shredding services offers several advantages. Assigning an employee to handle document destruction can be risky and inefficient. Our service typically results in cost savings of approximately 17% compared to in-house shredding. From a security perspective, it's advisable to limit employee access to sensitive documents or shredded files. While there are regulations about which documents must be destroyed, guidelines on the destruction process are less defined. Standard office shredders often don't provide adequate security, as documents can potentially be reassembled. Our service ensures complete destruction, preventing any possibility of document reconstruction. We also handle various media types beyond paper, including CDs, DVDs, x-rays, and videotapes, which cannot be processed by typical office shredders.
