Why Drop-Off Shredding is Better Than DIY Shredding

Many people consider using a home or office shredder to destroy confidential documents, but drop-off shredding offers significant advantages:

  • Industrial-Strength Security: Our commercial shredders create smaller, more secure particles than home shredders, making it impossible to reconstruct documents.
  • Time-Saving: Shredding large volumes at home is slow and tedious. Drop-off shredding is fast and efficient.
  • No Equipment Maintenance: Home shredders break down, jam, and require maintenance. We handle everything.
  • Certificate of Destruction: Proof of secure destruction for compliance and peace of mind.
  • Eco-Friendly: We recycle all shredded paper—home shredders send waste to landfills.
