Residential and Commercial Shredding

We’ve been helping business owners and managers safely discard their sensitive information since 2007. After scheduling a convenient date and time, we dispatch a mobile shredding truck and uniformed document handling specialists. If you are a self-employed professional working from home, we can visit your home office.

Many clients prefer the convenience of our secure on-site shredding services. However, we also offer off-site shredding solutions. If your compliance guidelines and procedures require documents to never leave your office, we recommend on-site shredding. Our specialists place all materials in secure containers; you can witness the process directly or through our secure CCTV network. For off-site shredding, you can bring your sensitive materials to our secure facility or schedule a pick-up.

You get a Certificate of Destruction for both on-site and off-site services. We take care of recycling all paper and salvageable parts from the electronic devices we destroy. You can schedule one-time or ongoing services for on-site shredding in Washington, DC.

Washington, DC HIPAA Shredding

HIPAA-compliant shredding is one of our most popular services. We closely follow all provisions of the HIPAA Privacy Rule, more commonly known as the Standards for Privacy. When our specialists handle HIPAA documents and electronic media, they begin with a chain of custody inquiry. We make sure not to break the chain as we assume responsibility for shredding and destruction.

We uphold the security of HIPAA documents from the time we collect them until we issue a Certificate of Destruction. We can also issue certificates that comply with the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA).

FAQs

Our NAID certification demands ample knowledge of document handling and compliance. We get many questions about the shredding and destruction of sensitive materials, including:


Dumpster diving is a nefarious technique that many hackers and thieves appreciate. Throwing documents without shredding them is like leaving a trail of information for malicious actors to follow. Shredding makes it impossible for criminals to piece together sensitive information.

This is a matter of compliance, convenience, or both. Some businesses establish a chain of custody within a physical establishment, so they must schedule on-site shredding. Most customers prefer on-site services, but you can also bring your documents and media devices to our office.

The Environmental Protection Agency estimates that a metric ton of paper can save 17 trees through recycling. We recycle over a million pounds of paper each year. The documents we destroy become paper towels, napkins, egg cartons, and other items.

"We had TrueShred come out to our office and destroy about 1,200 pounds of documents on site, and I have to say we were thoroughly impressed with the process and how quickly they finished!
