Are shredding services safe?

Yes, when they are run as a documented process. Documents stay under controlled handling from collection through destruction, trained personnel do the shredding, and you receive a certificate of destruction confirming the job was completed.

How do I need to prepare my materials for shredding?

Separate any non-paper materials, such as hard drives, cell phones, or other electronic devices, from your documents before collection. Describe what you have when requesting a quote, and we will confirm.

Do I need to remove staples or paper clips before shredding?

Describe your materials when requesting a quote, or call the New Berlin facility at (262) 798-3040, and we will confirm how they should be prepared before collection.

How long does a one-time shredding service take?

Timing for a one-time purge is confirmed when you request a quote. Contact Recycle Technologies at (262) 798-3040 to describe your paper volume and shredding needs and get a free quote.

How soon can you come to clear out my documents?

Contact Recycle Technologies at (262) 798-3040 to set up a one-time pickup for your business location. Scheduled pickups cover roughly a 100-mile radius around the New Berlin facility.

Why should I securely shred my documents?

Customer records, employee files, financial paperwork, and supplier information all carry a responsibility to protect, and a document leak can damage a company's reputation in ways that are hard to undo. Protecting sensitive information is often a legal obligation, and a documented shredding process with a certificate of destruction is what compliance reviews ask to see.

How often can you pick up?

We offer scheduled recurring service for offices generating paper every week and one-time service for purges, cleanouts, and archived records. Call (262) 798-3040 to set up a schedule for your business.
