Atlanta Off Site Shredding

Off site shredding in Atlanta is the process of picking up documents, taking them to a secure facility, and destroying them. The process complies with all current federal and Georgia privacy laws including HIPAA. Off site shredding is popular because it is usually cheaper to destroy paperwork at a facility than at your location. It offers a high level of security since only authorized people are allowed to come in contact with the material or even be at the plant.

Uniformed security drivers transport your files in a locked truck, guarding them until it arrives at a locked shredding facility. Upon arrival, the bins are weighed. Once recorded, they are then staged to begin the shredding process. The material is fed directly into the giant shredder processing over 20,000 pounds an hour. A certificate of destruction is generated with the total weight that verifies that the materials were destroyed.

Once papers are destroyed, they are compacted and shipped directly to a paper mill where the material is pulped and recycled into new paper.
