Destroying documents that contain private information helps protect against identity theft. Whether you are dealing with personal information or private Oakland business information, document shredding will help ensure you don’t let confidential material fall into the wrong hands.

As cases of identity theft and data breaches continue to rise, several laws, including FACTA, have been created dictating how organization throughout the U.S. handle the private information of customers and employees.

Shredding services provide a solution for organizations that produce large volumes of paperwork containing private information. For an affordable rate, hundreds of pounds of paper can be picked up and securely shredded.

However, if your office doesn’t produce large amounts of sensitive paperwork, shredding services may not be your answer. Because it’s still important to thoroughly destroy confidential paperwork, purchasing your own personal or office shredder may be your best option.

The first thing you’ll need to do when selecting a paper shredder is to evaluate your needs.

  • Do you need a shredder that can handle staples, clips, or cardboard?
  • Is noise level a factor you need to consider?
