Secure document destruction and high quality paper shredding are not things that you want to skimp on – particularly when it comes to the protection of confidential information. When it comes to compliant document destruction, many people look for the cheapest method possible that will still “get the job done.” What many fail to realise is that one small slip up could end up costing your organisation dearly by way of compliance issues, fines and other catastrophes. On-site shredding with Shred On Site, is actually a whole lot more cost effective than many people realise – particularly if you’re looking at things in context of the bigger picture.

Productivity Savings

The major way that shredding on site is more cost effective than people realise has to do with productivity. Think for a moment about everything that is involved to take on confidential document destruction from an in-house perspective. You essentially have two different options available to you – you can pull one or more employees off of whatever important project they’re working on to prepare, sort and ultimately destroy your documents, or you can hire a full time employee to accomplish much the same thing.

Both situations require an enormous up-front investment. Hiring a new employee means paying a new salary and moving employees off of existing projects means that your business is no longer moving forward – it is essentially spinning its wheels until the confidential document destruction is done.

By investing in on-site shredding and similar types of services, however, these are concerns that you no longer need to focus on. There is absolutely no need to even think about sorting or preparing the files or documents that need to be destroyed in any way – someone from a company like Shred on Site will take care of all of that. Shred on Site’s state-of-the-art mobile van can destroy all types of materials as needed – from plastic sleeves to binders to folders to staples and everything in between.

Convenient Shredding

You can also have secure document destruction and on-site shredding performed on your own schedule instead of the other way around. You no longer have to “make time” for secure document destruction – it can happen whenever the need arises thanks to companies like Shred on Site and the fact that they will be at your business in as little as one business day.

These are just a few of the reasons why on-site shredding is a lot more cost effective than many people tend to realise. While it’s true that shredding on site will always cost more money than simply purchasing an office paper shredder, which is basically where the advantages of doing things yourself end. Not only will shredding on site save you a great deal of money with regards to productivity alone, but it can also save you from inconceivable financial peril in the event that you should ever have confidential information stolen and be forced to suffer the ramifications thereafter. Office paper shredders simply can’t handle the volume of paper needed to be shredded by the average office.
