On-site shredding is the process of shredding documents, media, and hard drives on your premises using a specialized, state-of-the-art shredding vehicle. A video mounted on the side of the vehicle allows you to witness the entire destruction process. A Certificate of Destruction is provided to you immediately.

On-site shredding is the safest, most efficient way to destroy sensitive paper documents. Because you witness the destruction of sensitive documents before your very eyes, you can rest assured knowing that these documents are not subject to the transportation risk inherent in off-site shredding. Don’t take the risk of letting your papers leave your property intact—choose on-site shredding for fast, risk-free document disposal.

Whether you are a homeowner or business owner, the documents on your property can lead to a breach of identity and other risks if not disposed of properly. Below is a list of the documents that should always be shredded:

While you might think that you can handle document shredding without the help of a professional, the fact is that many documents can be difficult and/or time-consuming to shred in traditional office shredders. This is especially true if documents are left to pile up, which can lead to hours spent standing over the shredder.

The professional shredding teams at Secure On-Site Shredding use commercial-grade shredders that can shred hundreds of pounds of paper in a matter of minutes. With us, you never have to worry if your papers are shredded enough, and you never have to spend precious hours shredding them yourself.
