Document Shredding Services

Document Shredding Services

Smooth Solutions is dedicated to being your data security experts. In addition to providing document scanning services, Smooth Solutions can facilitate document shredding services as well. All organizations have confidential information that eventually requires document shredding, which is an essential component of any secure document life-cycle program. Without proper protection, this information typically ends up in dumpsters where it is readily available to competitors, identity thieves or anyone else with ill intentions.

Establishments that discard private data without destroying it properly put themselves at risk to that data being used against them. Unfortunately, in-house attempts to prevent data breaches often cause more harm than good. Outsourcing to a certified document shredding service affords you peace of mind that your confidential materials are disposed of properly and compliantly.

Whether you need to shred documents for a one-time purge or want to setup a regular schedule for ongoing needs, we have a document shredding solution for you. We can also provide you with locked consoles or bins to be kept at your office for regularly scheduled pickups. Once they are full, we’ll either shred the contents on premises or bring them to our facility for destruction.

On-site Mobile Shredding

Document shredding service specialists will come to your location and shred your documents on-site using shredding trucks equipped with cross-cut particle shredders. This technology ensures that all documents are pulverized into indecipherable pieces of confetti that can never be pieced back together, like the strips created by typical office shredders.

Shredding documents on-site is much safer and faster than trying to shred them yourself with an office shredder. You will be able to observe the entire shredding process and upon completion will immediately be issued a certificate of destruction for your records. On-site mobile document destruction services are efficient, secure and do not require any time or labor on your part.

Off-site Shredding

Document shredding service specialists will come to your office and pickup your bins, bags or boxes to be brought to our secure shredding facility for destruction. All materials are kept secure and locked until they are ready to be destroyed within 24 hours of arrival. Customer witness of the shredding process is available upon request.

Off-site paper shredding services is the most cost-effective option for large volumes of paper that needs to be securely destroyed. As with on-site shredding, there is no need to remove staples, clips or folders. After the process is complete, the shredded paper is baled and shipped to paper mills for recycling and reuse.

Regulatory Compliance

Our secure document destruction services are NAID AAA Certified in the NYC Tri-state area. This certification verifies that our practices are in accordance with the regulatory compliance requirements set forth by HIPAA, Sarbanes-Oxley, PCI, the Fair and Accurate Credit Transaction Act and more.

At the completion of your document shredding project you will be provided with a certificate of destruction. This formal document contains detailed information about the destruction of your documents including the date, time, console number, and entire chain of custody. This ensures that the shredding process is compliant with all relevant security laws and protects your company in the event of legal action or audit.
