Secure Off-Site Document Shredding
Recycle Technologies provides secure off-site shredding for businesses handling confidential paperwork. We collect your documents in secure vehicles and transport them to our shredding facility for destruction.
What Is Off-Site Shredding?
Shredding is the process by which a business destroys confidential paper records so they can’t be reconstructed or read after disposal. With off-site shredding, a team collects your documents in secure vehicles and transports them to a shredding facility in Minnesota or Wisconsin, where they’re destroyed. This is the most cost-effective option for businesses with large volumes of paper. Every load is handled with the same goal: making sure confidential paper is destroyed securely. Once destroyed, the shredded material is recycled rather than sent to a landfill.
