It’s Time to Schedule Those Shredding Purges

Convenient Document Destruction by a Trusted Company

Most people think of purges happening twice a year: once in the spring for spring cleaning and then again at the end of the year. In reality, any time is a good time to clear out your home, desk, or office of the mounds of paper that need to be shredded. In fact, October is a great time because you can go into the holiday season with a clean desk, and the year-end clear-out should go much smoother. If you have specific compliance rules you need to follow, scheduling a document shredding purge will help you meet your compliance requirements. In all cases, partnering with a professional information management company will make the task much easier.

How A Professional Document Shredding Company Makes Purges Easy

If you are responsible for storing and shredding mountains of documents, you know how quickly things can overwhelm you. You also realize that a simple office shredding machine will not do the trick. And what do you do with the bags of shredded paper? You can’t throw them into the dumpster. Thieves can steal them and piece them together! Instead, get ready for a full day of records and document purging made simple with help from the professionals.

  1. They understand the needs of those following compliance regulations. You don’t have to worry about how your paperwork will be handled. Established companies have certifications that ensure they know how to handle the private and confidential documents they destroy. 
  2. They provide options for one-time purges and routine pick-ups. One-time pickup days are perfect when you have a large number of documents that need to be shredded. Once you have completed this task, you can speak with the company about establishing a routine pickup that will ensure you keep paper documents at manageable levels.
  3. They will arrive at your location. You don’t have to worry about renting a moving truck to get those boxes of paper out of your facility. A shredding company will come to you, making it a convenient service that saves you time and headaches.
  4. They follow a chain of custody. They are well-trained to handle your documents from when you release the paper until it is shredded. This chain of custody is auditable and will make your compliance department happy.
  5. They give you a Certificate of Destruction. Do you need proof that everything was safely destroyed? The professionals can do that. Once they have completed the process of shredding your records in their industrial shredding equipment, they will give you a Certificate of Destruction.
