When it comes to document destruction, far too many business owners assume that shredding is all they need to do to make sure that this confidential information doesn’t fall into the wrong hands. These types of business owners often (and unfortunately) pay dearly for that mistake as a result. Never underestimate the abilities of people who wish to do you harm. If a document is only shredded, it can still be pieced back together again, and the information contained in these documents can be compromised – it’s easier than you might think. The confidential document destruction process, on the other hand, is one that is designed from the ground up to give you the peace of mind that only comes with knowing that your documents are safe and secure before, during and after the time that they are disposed of.

Secure, Lockable Bins

When you partner with a company like Shred on Site, one of the major benefits is that the confidential document destruction process actually begins before anything happens to the documents themselves. You are provided with a series of secure, lockable bins that you can use to store documents that you no longer need. These are delivered to you at the beginning of your service agreement and cannot be opened by any means, making sure that nothing happens to this ever-important information while it is waiting to be properly disposed of.

Document Collection

When you decide that the time is right or when your bins become full, Shred on Site employees will then snap into action. Your secure, lockable bins are emptied and their contents are taken to a mobile shredding truck that will be located either on your business’ property or as close to that property as we can get it. All of the contents inside those shredding bins are then instantly shredded using advanced technology that ensures the security of your confidential documents.

This also comes with the added benefit of allowing you to watch the activity going on inside the truck on a closed circuit television system. If you’re still worried about the policies and procedures that are being put into place, you don’t have to be – you can supervise every minute of the proceedings if you want to.

Once the confidential document destruction process has finished, all of those shredded paper documents and other materials are then taken to a facility where they are recycled. Not only will your documents be impossible to recover, but you can also do your part to benefit the environment at the same time.

When it comes to the security of your business information, you always want to make sure that you’re taking every last avenue available to you to help protect your clients, your employees and yourself from harm. The confidential document destruction process offered by Shred on Site is the best way to accomplish all of these goals in one fell swoop.
