Partnering With The Right Document Shredding Provider: What To Know

It is very important today especially, that non-profit organizations are consciously making decisions that enhance their internal security efforts; this is due to the level of confidential information circulating most offices on any given day.  Remember that the personal details surrounding your clients, employees, customers, and business, deserve proper protection from information exposure.

What is the best solution for this? Secure document destruction of any sensitive document containing private details that you no longer need to store. While in-house office shredders may seem like a feasible solution, they simply aren’t reliable and only shred documents into strips, which can be easily put back together. An office shredder also demands considerable time and attention, which means your employees, are pulled away from the job duties they were hired to perform; this affects overall productivity tremendously.

The only method of destruction that is 100% secure and reliable is through an experienced professional equipped with the necessary technology and machinery to shred information into an irrecoverable state. Not only does this process protect you from potential fraud and identity theft, it also ensures that your business remains compliant with key privacy legislation. It also helps your company maintain organization over your critical information.

Advantages of a Professional Document Shredding Company:

For trusted shredding you can count on, we welcome you to consider using Time Shred Services as your source for shredding. Our services guarantee your peace of mind, while saving you time and money. How do you know you’re partnering with the right company for your needs, however? You’ll want to first consider what services would be beneficial to your company prior to hiring us or any other document shredding company, because not every business provides the same services. For instance, if you need a one-time purge service or regular ongoing shredding services on the other hand, you’ll want to confirm that the shredding company you’re considering does in fact offer these options.  Knowing what solutions, you need; will help you decide which professional services you should be seeking out. A one-time purge service is typically used by companies who need to get rid of a significantly large volume of documents because of a move, clean-up, or office closure. Documents are collected and shred directly on-site through the use of our mobile shred trucks.

Privacy laws are constantly changing and penalties for non-compliance are becoming far more stringent, which makes shredding even more crucial. As a business owner, sensitive records and customer information needs to stay secure while in storage but it’s equally important that when they are ready to be disposed of they are done in a safe manner that protects information from exposure. Shredding is the only option that does just that.
