What is One-Time Purge Shredding?
One-time purge shredding is a single-event, large-scale document destruction service. Instead of scheduled, recurring pickups, you call us when you have a bulk amount of documents to shred—whether that's a few boxes or an entire storage room.
We offer both on-site and off-site destruction, depending on your security needs and budget. All services are NAID AAA certified and fully compliant with HIPAA, GLBA, FACTA, and other data protection regulations.
