Why Shred???

Mobile Shredding is the most secure, convenient, economical, and environmentally sound method of destroying confidential information.  Because of this value, demand for those services is skyrocketing.

Every Business Has Information That Requires Destruction

All businesses have occasion to discard confidential data. Customer lists, price lists, sales statistics, drafts of bids, and correspondence, and even memos, contain information about business activity which would interest any competitor. Employees and customers have a legal right to have certain information protected.  Any establishment that discards private and proprietary data without the benefit of destruction exposes itself to the risk of criminal and civil prosecution, as well as the costly loss of business.

Increase in Government Regulation

It is no secret that federal and state lawmakers have increased their interest in protecting the information of their constituents.   Recent legislation that requires privacy protection for all of us includes:

  • Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) - This federal law requires all healthcare organizations to protect patient information which includes the secure destruction and disposal of all information whether it was duplicated or not.
  • Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GBLA) - This federal law requires banking and financial institutions to protect the confidentiality and security of customer information.
  • Fair and Accurate Credit Transaction Act (FACTA) - This new federal law is designed to reduce the risk of consumer fraud and identity theft created by improper disposal of consumer information.  The FACTA disposal rule applies to virtually every business in the United States.  FACTA required the destruction of all consumer information before it is discarded.

Information Protection is a Vital Issue to Senior Management

In a survey conducted by the Conference Board, top executives from 300 companies ranked the security of company records as one of the top five critical issues facing business.  When asked which issues required immediate attention and policy development, the security of company recorded ranked second only to employee health screening.

Paperless Office??

In sharp contrast to the predicted move to a paperless office, a University of Illinois study showed that paper consumption tripled from 1980-1990 and is projected to grow at an estimated annual rate of 14%-16% through the year 2010.
