Helpful Tips About Document Shredding

1. Separate the documents you want destroyed from the ones you need to keep so you don’t have to worry about the wrong papers being destroyed.
2. Don’t worry about staples and paper clips. Our powerful commercial shredding trucks will shred these items along with your paperwork.
3. Place the papers to be destroyed in boxes, garbage bags or containers that make them easy to handle.
4. Have the documents you want shredded in one place, so nothing is missed when the document destruction service arrives.
5. Shred often to avoid the risk of documents getting into the wrong hands.
6. Shred every piece of paper being disposed of since more than half of all documents have secure information on them to prevent making a mistake.
7. Have secure containers in your office so staff dispose of all documents in these locked containers.
8. There should be a Secure Chain of Custody. Your documents should be moved from your location in a locked bin to the truck where they are shredded immediately.
