Off site shredding is basically the operation of transporting papers to a shredding plant near Detroit and shredding them. The off site process complies with every existing federal and Michigan privacy law including FACTA. This option is common because it is generally cheaper to destroy at a facility than at a location. The savings come from using the largest shredders around so you get economies of scale.
Uniformed security drivers take your files in a locked truck, protecting it until it arrives at a locked shredding plant. Upon the delivery of the files for destruction, the bins are weighed. Once recorded, they are then staged to begin the shredding work. The material is dumped directly into the industrial shredder—processing over 20,000 pounds an hour. A certificate of destruction is created with the total weight, assuring that the papers were shredded.
Once papers are shredded they are compacted and sent directly to a paper mill where the material is turned into pulp to make new paper.
The paper is picked up and placed in secure containers.
