What types of documents should be considered for destruction, and how do I identify them?

Documents that contain sensitive or confidential information, such as financial records, medical files, legal documents, and employee records, should be considered for destruction. A document retention policy can help identify which documents need to be shredded.

What is the difference between on-site and off-site document destruction services?

On-site destruction involves shredding documents at your location for added security, compliance, and peace of mind, while off-site destruction means documents are collected and securely destroyed at the shredding facility. Both services are accompanied with a certificate of destruction for your records.

Can I schedule a one-time shredding service, or do you offer recurring shredding plans?

Whether you need a one-time shredding service or prefer a recurring plan, we can connect you with providers offering flexible options. Discuss your specific needs with the chosen provider for a customized shredding solution.

Can I receive a Certificate of Destruction after the shredding service is complete?

Yes, our service providers offer a Certificate of Destruction as proof that your documents have been securely and properly shredded. You can request this document for your records.

Troy Hard Drive Shredding and Degaussing

When it is time to upgrade your electronic devices, make sure to safely dispose of your older models. Even devices that have been wiped clean or are no longer working, can be used to recover valuable information. Our destruction services physically break your hard drive to ensure that your data is unrecoverable and safe.

We have a variety of options including:

Hard Drive Shredding: This method completely destroys your devices by breaking them down, shredding the hard drives, and recycling the remaining materials. Shredding completely destroys the hard drive making it impossible to recover any information.
Hard Drive Degaussing: This method uses high-powered magnets to scramble the data stored within your hard drives. It makes it very difficult to decipher and recover your information.
Hard Drive Crushing: This method punches holes into your hard drives and crushes the platters. Your drives will be shattered into pieces and your data will be destroyed.
