How do Shredding Services work?
When you visit, we’ll weigh your documents and then they will be placed into the secured, locked shredding bin. It’s that easy!
Behind the scenes, our shredding partner, Iron Mountain, and The UPS Store work together to complete the destruction of your documents. Iron Mountain is NAID certified and their operating procedures are based on many years of experience, enabling them to provide you with the most reliable and consistent document destruction service. Your documents are placed in locked shred bins provided by Iron Mountain. These bins remain locked until the moment the papers are shredded, helping to ensure your information remains secured throughout the process. When bins are ready for pickup, they’re loaded and transported to an off-site facility for destruction. After they arrive, the shred bins are dumped into industrial shredders.
After Iron Mountain destroys your materials, the paper bits are baled and sent for recycling. Next the ink is washed and shreds are pulped and recycled. Your original documents are now securely and completely destroyed and recycled according to the mandated regulations. You can feel good knowing that you’re protecting your business and the environment at the same time.
