How Mobile Shredding Works

There are some documents that you need shredded, so you pull out the shredder stored in your closet. As you begin to shred the shredder starts to jam, then it overheats – now you have to wait… You would have never thought that this would be too big of a job for an office shredder. The reality of this situation is that office shredders are not designed to handle any more than just small amounts of paper at a time.

Mobile shredding is the most effective way to get your documents shredded. When you choose mobile shredding a truck with an industrial shredder inside will come to you and shred your documents while you watch.

In a business setting, trade secrets, client information, and even confidential employee information could all be compromised, resulting in severe damage to the business’s reputation. In a personal setting, any information that has your date of birth, social security number, or any other confidential information can get into the hand of an identity thief and cause irreparable damage.
