Our secure collection process starts when your employees place documents to be shredded in our secure consoles.

P Shred-it secure consoles contain a wide, beveled feed slot and internal security plate, to ensure that no one can remove documents after they’ve been deposited.

P Your Shred-it security-trained expert arrives on schedule to remove and then close the sturdy nylon bag inside each console.

P Your secure documents are destroyed inside our truck — right at your location — and you can watch the process.

P A Certificate of Destruction is provided to you after each service.

Protecting your confidential business information with Shred-it is safe, convenient and cost-effective.

Shred-it offers you a choice of three levels of secure document destruction to fit your needs, based on your industry’s requirements. Our destruction process utilizes cross-cut shredders that completely destroy your discarded paperwork.

Security Level 1 Standard Shred Size, the best in the industry (about the same size as a memory stick)

Security Level 2 Fine Shred, for added security (about the same size as a paper clip)

Security Level 3 Microfine Shred, a shred size smaller than any other on site shredding provider (about the same size as a push pin)
