Why Shred?

  Most people understand that certain types of records must be kept a specific period of time for tax, legal, and other reasons. This is known as “records retention,” and it plays a large part in legal compliance. However, fewer people understand that keeping records beyond their retention period can prove to be a legal and logistical nightmare, not to mention that any documents containing confidential information, even outdated or obsolete documents, can be stolen and the information used by criminals. That’s why it’s a best practice to shred documents when they reach the end of their retention lifecycle. A shredding service must follow secure procedures, hire background-checked staff, implement regular training, and carry the proper certifications and insurance so you know your information will remain confidential. Veteran Shredding is HIPAA compliant, which carries strict requirements about personnel, procedures, and chain of custody. This means that once you hand over your documents to be shredded, you never have to worry about that information falling into the wrong hands. That’s the Veteran Shredding promise.
