FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Are your employees security screened?
Prior to employment, all employees must pass a criminal background check. Per our NAID certification, 50 percent of employee backgrounds are processed each year. We also drug screen our employees.
Are your containers secure?
Yes, each container has a lock to secure the material. A designated employee at your location will be given a key to the lock.
Do you provide a Certificate of Destruction?
Yes, we can provide these for each service. The certificate will include documenting data, quantity of materials destroyed, and method of destruction.
I have an office shredder. Why should I hire a shredding company?
Paper shredding is a non-revenue producing function that eats up valuable employee hours. When you consider how much it costs for one of your employees to do the job and factor in what they could be working on instead, you’ll find that outsourcing this tedious task to Secured Document Shredding will save you valuable time and money.
Will I need to remove paperclips, staples, and folders?
How do I estimate how much weight I have?
