Document Shredding Services

Save time and mitigate risk by letting Vital Records Control securely destroy your documents.

If you’re like most businesses, your company generates a lot of paper documents. Though destroying documents onsite with a hand-fed shredder may seem like a reasonable way to save space, it’s time consuming and can put your information security at risk.

VRC can help. From mobile shredding services that come to you to off-site bulk shredding, we can design a solution to fit your company’s needs.

• Environmentally-Friendly Destruction
  We use an industrial-grade strip shredder to reduce paper to 3/8-inch strips. Then, the shredded particles are baled and sent to a local recycling partner. Paper mills then clean recycled materials and repurpose them into new products, minimizing our environmental impact.Learn more about the benefits of sustainable shredding.
