Off-Site Shredding in Blaine, Minnesota
Off-site shredding for Twin Cities businesses and north metro households, with collection from your office, secure transport to our Blaine facility, and destruction of paper, hard drives and phones under one roof.
Off-site shredding means your confidential material leaves your building with our team and is destroyed at our own plant. Recycle Technologies runs that process at our Blaine site on 99th Lane NE for every format that holds private information: paper records, hard drives and SSDs, and cell phones along with their SIM cards and memory chips. Businesses can book a one-time purge or recurring pickups, households can drop off on weekdays, and sensitive items can be destroyed while you watch. Each job closes with a certificate, and our operations are NAID AAA certified and follow R2v3 and RIOS standards.

What We Shred Off-Site in Blaine
One facility, one pickup, every format. Whether it's a file room in Anoka or a bin of retired laptops and phones from a Maple Grove office, we destroy:

From Your Building to Our Shredder
Collection
Our team picks up boxes, drives and devices at your office, or you bring them to our dock.
Secure transport
Everything travels in secure vehicles straight to our Blaine facility.
Logged on arrival
Loads are checked in at the north-end dock.
Destruction
Paper is shredded, drives are physically destroyed, and phones are wiped or destroyed.
Recycling
Shredded paper and the remaining material go to recycling, not a landfill.
Certificate
A Certificate of Destruction is issued so you have proof on file.
Off-Site or Mobile Shredding?
Mobile shredding brings a truck to your parking lot. Off-site shredding moves the work to a dedicated plant, which suits organizations that would rather hand over boxes, drives and phones in one visit and let a single facility handle all three. If seeing it happen matters, you can still watch.
Witnessed Destruction
For hard drives, phones, and sensitive documents, you can witness the destruction at our Blaine facility. Ask when you book, and we'll schedule a time for you.
Certificate and Standards
Every job ends with documentation you can file. Our shredding is NAID AAA certified, our operations follow R2v3 and RIOS standards, and the standards shown across our services include NIST SP 800-88, HIPAA, GLBA, FACTA and FCRA. Your compliance obligations stay with your organization, but you'll have a clear record of what was destroyed and when.
See our main off-site shredding page for more on the service.
One-Time Purge or Recurring Pickup
Choose a purge when the volume is a one-off: closing out old tax years, moving offices, retiring a server room, clearing a former employee's files, or emptying an archive after a retention date passes.
Choose recurring pickup when confidential material keeps piling up: clinics with daily patient paperwork, property managers handling leases, accounting practices in tax season, or IT teams cycling out laptops and phones on a schedule.
Whichever you pick, the chain stays the same: our vehicles, our Blaine plant, your certificate.
