What Happens During Shredding
Uniformed security professionals remove your secure documents to a locked shredding truck, guarding it until it arrives at a secure shredding facility in Washington DC. At the plant, the containers are weighed for record keeping. Only authorized personnel are allowed to come into contact with your documents at the plant, and they never see the contents of your files.
Pricing
Off-site shredding costs, on average, $110-$130 for a project between 1-10 boxes but can vary based on location, size, and other factors.
Off Site Shredding Process
STEP 1: You gather the documents that you need destroyed.

STEP 3: The bins are safely taken to a local DC shredding plant.
STEP 4: The paper is destroyed, baled, and recycled into new paper.
STEP 5: A certificate of destruction is issued.
