The Benefits of Scheduled Shredding

Are unwanted and expired documents creating problems for your business? Do you worry whether your confidential files are being exposed to prying eyes? Routine document destruction can remedy your concerns. In this blog, we explain the benefits of scheduled shredding.

Productivity

In-house shredding is detrimental to productivity. A scheduled shredding service helps you focus on core and revenue-generating tasks. Your scheduled shredding provider brings locked shredding collection containers to your office, enabling your employees to dispose of files without having to remove staples and paperclips. Your provider’s background-screened, uniformed professionals empty the containers according to your customized shredding schedule and transport your documents to a shredding plant for secure, offsite destruction, or shred them onsite with a mobile shredding vehicle.

Privacy

When documents land in dumpsters and recycling containers, privacy breaches are inevitable. A scheduled shredding service reduces your company’s exposure to identity theft and fraud. Your shredding provider collects, handles, and destroys your documents within a strict chain of custody.

Compliance

Many companies must comply with state and federal privacy regulations, including the following laws:

• HIPAA
• SOX
• GLBA
• FACTA

Proving your compliance with these laws is difficult without verifiable document destruction program. A scheduled shredding service helps you dispose of personally identifiable information (PII) and protected health information (PHI) in a manner that complies with state and federal regulations. Your scheduled shredding provider provides a Certificate of Destruction that confirms your compliance with regulatory requirements.

Protection for the Environment

Reducing your organization’s carbon footprint benefits the environment. A scheduled shredding service ensures your paper waste is recycled and reused.

Peace of Mind

In today’s world, many things may keep you up at night. With a scheduled shredding service, you never worry whether your documents will fall into the wrong hands. A shredding provider offers trusted, ongoing destruction of your paper records.

As you can see, scheduled shredding offers a host of benefits for your business.
