Security Matters

For some businesses in San Diego, on-site shredding may not be the first thing that comes to mind when they are planning data protection. However, if your company prioritizes security, it’s time to get serious about document destruction.

360-Degree Protection

Your building has locks on the door. Your computers have anti-virus software. Your email systems have passwords. Each of these processes is a way of letting your employees work safely and efficiently while keeping the wrong people out of your business.

However, companies often produce paper and electronic waste, and that’s when San Diego on-site shredding matters. Data that goes into the trash goes out into the world for anyone to find. After all of the other efforts that your business takes to keep sensitive information from reaching the wrong hands, it’s important to fill in the gaps in your security.

Our Work

Southern California Shredding specializes in secure mobile paper shredding. San Diego businesses rely on us because all of our processes center on protecting their information and keeping their trust.

Our shredding trucks are capable of handling a variety of media, from hundreds of pounds of paper and file folders to electronic media such as hard drives, film, X-rays, and compact discs. These industrial-grade vehicles make quick work of the shredding jobs that would take an untrained staff of employees hours or days to complete with non-commercial equipment.

Our value goes much further than technology, however. Southern California Shredding’s people and processes are what have made us a leading provider in the region.

Steps for Security

In a typical project involving on-site shredding, we provide your San Diego company with special security bins to collect unwanted but sensitive materials. These bins lock away your documents and electronic media until the day of pickup. We schedule pickups on a weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly basis, though we can arrange to destroy materials as-needed as well.

On pickup day, our shredding technicians arrive on-time at your location. These team members have undergone rigorous background checks and submitted to drug testing prior to employment. They are trained to respond quickly and professional to your concerns, and they are skilled in providing solutions to the challenges that can come up. Customers develop personal relationships with our staff and come to see us as part of their team.

Technicians work in a way that does not disrupt your employees. They haul the materials from the security bins out to the awaiting shredding truck, and you or your representative can watch on a video monitor as the truck is loaded and the documents are destroyed. We provide you with a Certificate of Destruction as proof your documents have been eliminated.

This is just an overview of our work. For more details about on-site shredding and data security in San Diego, call Southern California Shredding at 1-866-66SHRED or contact us online.

FAQ

Answers Before You Book

Still have a question? Call our Lake Forest office at (949) 305-5511 and talk to a real person.

How do you keep my information secure?

We are fully licensed and bonded. You get a Certificate of Destruction when every job is done. We can also give you a locked container. When it is full, our team takes it straight to the truck and feeds it into the shredder. You can watch it all on the truck’s monitor.

What do I need to do before you arrive?

If you use our consoles or bins, leave them where our team can reach them. Keep CDs, hard drives and other media close by, but apart from the bins, so we can sort them for recycling. That’s it. We come on your day, shred it all on-site and give you a Certificate of Destruction.

What does shredding cost?

Price depends on three things: how much you have, how it is packed, and how often you want service. There is no minimum. Call or ask for a quote, and we will give you an exact price for your needs. More does not always cost more. A monthly plan can even save you money.

What should I shred?

Anything that could put your identity or your business’s privacy at risk. That includes records that laws like HIPAA and FACTA say you must destroy. Common examples: bank statements, tax records, pay stubs, cancelled checks, loan and insurance papers, medical and legal files, utility bills and credit cards. Shred anything with a Social Security or card number. Hard drives and digital media too.
