Frequently Asked Questions

After the paper has been securely shredded, the confetti-sized pieces are bundled and recycled into paper products.

Free shredding is a misconception. Some providers may offer you the cost savings, but they do so at the expense of your security, by cutting corners and exposing your confidential information. At Shred-it, we offer a Secure Chain of Custody with our services, from start to finish. So you know you’re always protected.

Two policies that can be effective in document management are a clean desk policy and a shred-it-all policy. A clean desk policy helps ensure physical documents are shredded or contained and that all technological devices are password protected each time an employee leaves a workspace. A shred-it-all policy encourages the regular destruction of all documents to help ensure no confidential information is left out in the open that could potentially fall into the wrong hands.

Shred any document containing sensitive information, such as bank statements, credit card offers, tax returns, and personal identification information. If your business manages a lot of customer information (i.e. addresses, account details, contact information, pricing, etc.), our Regularly Scheduled Shredding Service would be recommended to protect their privacy.

Using a professional shredding service like Shred-it is more secure and efficient than shredding documents yourself. We make sure that your information stays secure, and most importantly, compliant with industry standards.

Professional shredding service costs vary depending on the amount of paper being shredded and the level of security required and the type of service chosen. Give us a call and we’ll help you with an accurate shredding quote for your needs.

Shred-it is committed to contributing to a circular economy for paper resources. Shred-it recycles all paper documents it shreds, helping businesses preserve natural resources. Unlike the traditional “blue bin” document disposal method, Shred-it helps businesses achieve some of their sustainability goals without compromising data security. In 2021, Shred-it securely collected and recycled approximately 1.1 billion pounds of shredded sorted office paper, which is the equivalent of the paper that could be harvested from approximately 9 million trees.

Throwing papers in the trash or recycling bins does not protect the confidentiality of the information in the documents because they are often left unattended in the workplace. Malicious insiders can take documents out of the bins when no one is looking. Malicious outsiders or dumpster divers can sift through trash once discarded. This way of disposal can pose a risk of a data breach occurring.
