All businesses have occasion to discard data. Customer lists, price lists, sales statistics, drafts of bids and correspondence, and even memos contain information about business activity, which interest any competitor. Every business is also entrusted with information that must be kept private. Employees and customers have the legal right to have data protected.

Security Shredders Inc. can tighten security with “on-site” destruction of your confidential papers.

Years ago, the computer industry speculated that we would soon be entering a paperless society. That hasn’t occurred yet. As electronic data storage becomes the standard for business, documents that are printed in hard copy will all be of a highly confidential nature.

Government, business', and industry are all becoming pro-active with regard to security by adopting comprehensive document destruction practices to prevent potentially damaging situations.

Businesses have a moral and legal responsibility to safeguard the public trust. Failure to do so may result in loss of goodwill, loss of business, loss of income and may result in a criminal and/or civil conviction.

Many companies destroy documents to cut back on paper storage costs and only save those files containing pertinent information.

Office relocations are usually ideal opportunities to dispose of obsolete but potentially damaging information.
