Paper Shredding in New Berlin, WI
Secure document shredding for New Berlin, Milwaukee, and Waukesha County, with weekday drop-off on South 171st Street, witnessed shredding for sensitive files, and recurring or one-time pickup for businesses.
Old tax returns, patient charts, payroll records, and signed leases shouldn't sit in a recycling cart where anyone can read them. Recycle Technologies shreds paper at our own NAID AAA-certified plant, the New Berlin Recycling Center, 2815 S 171st St, close to I-43 and College Avenue. Residents and businesses can bring documents in any weekday; sensitive files can be shredded while you watch, and companies can set up routine pickup or a one-time cleanout. Each job closes with a certificate of destruction, and the shredded paper moves on to recycling.

Documents We Shred in New Berlin
A shoebox of old bank statements from a Muskego home or a wall of file cabinets from a Greenfield clinic can both come to our plant. We shred:
Business files, records and reports
Confidential paper with customer, employee, or company details
Everyday office paper
Archived records from large cleanouts
Paper is all this service covers. Retired drives go through hard drive destruction, and cell phones through phone shredding.
Before You Bring Documents In
Pull the staples. Take staples out of your documents before drop-off or pickup.
Remove what isn't paper. Binders, plastic sleeves, and other non-paper items should be set aside.
Use boxes you can carry. Any sturdy box works for drop-off.

Document Disposal Rules in Wisconsin
Wisconsin law requires financial institutions, medical businesses, and tax preparers to shred or otherwise destroy records holding personal information before discarding them (s. 134.97, Wis. Stats.). HIPAA, GLBA and the FACTA disposal rule set similar expectations for patient, financial and consumer report records.
Community shred days around New Berlin come only a few times a year and usually cap each car at five boxes. Our plant takes documents every weekday, and the certificate of destruction gives your office a record to keep.
