Document shredding — $1 per pound.

$1 per pound. We weigh your documents at the counter when you drop off, so you only pay for exactly what you bring. There's no minimum and no setup fee — drop off one folder or fifty pounds, the price per pound is the same.

Shred-it, an NAID AAA Certified shredding service. NAID (the National Association of Information Destruction) AAA Certification is the highest industry standard for secure document destruction — auditors verify that Shred-it follows strict chain-of-custody, employee background checks, secure transportation, and verified destruction protocols. We store your documents in a secure on-site container until Shred-it collects them.

No. Walk in any time during store hours (Mon–Sat, 10am–6pm). If you're bringing more than 50 lbs or boxes of records, a quick heads-up call is appreciated so we can make space.

No — staples, paper clips, and binder clips are fine and don't need to be removed. Industrial shredders handle them. Please do remove hardcover books, 3-ring binders with metal rings, and anything larger than a small metal clip.

Not on-site — Shred-it collects from us and shreds at their secure facility. They provide a Certificate of Destruction on request for each pickup, which you can request from us if you need proof for HIPAA, tax, or legal compliance purposes.

Yes. Shred-it's NAID AAA Certification meets or exceeds HIPAA, HITECH, FACTA, GLBA, and other US privacy regulations. We're a drop-off point for their service, and we keep your documents in a secured container between drop-off and pickup.

On a regular schedule, so your documents typically sit in our secure container for a few days to a couple weeks at most before being shredded. If you need expedited pickup for a large volume or time-sensitive compliance reason, call us and we can coordinate with Shred-it.

No — we only shred paper. For secure electronics destruction, we can refer you to a certified e-waste partner. Do not drop off electronics with your paper — they will not be processed and may damage Shred-it's equipment.

Yes. Small businesses, tax preparers, medical offices, and law firms drop off banker's boxes and file-cabinet purges regularly. We charge the same $1 per pound — no bulk minimum, no bulk surcharge. For recurring shredding (monthly/quarterly), just let us know and we'll make sure we always have capacity.

Off-site. We're a secure drop-off location: your documents are locked in our on-site bin between drop-off and Shred-it's regular pickup. They're then shredded at Shred-it's secure facility and recycled. For tax, HIPAA, or legal compliance, Shred-it provides a Certificate of Destruction on request. If you need witnessed on-site shredding for a large volume, we can refer you directly to Shred-it's mobile truck service.

Yes — old tax returns, W-2s, 1099s, and receipts are exactly what this service is for. The IRS recommends keeping tax records for 3–7 years depending on the situation (7 years covers most); anything older is safe to shred unless you're in an open audit or carry-forward situation. Our shredding process meets or exceeds IRS Publication 583 recommendations for business record destruction.
