FAQs
On-site shredding is the most secure information destruction method available today.
With Apex Shredding Inc. the entire process from collection of documents to destruction can be witnessed right outside your door.
Off-site shredding services have two inherent risks.
This first risk is what is often called the “transport risk”. Your documents leave your location intact and readable. If you can imagine a truck in the news with its contents spilled across a highway just try to picture the contents being your sensitive information. The second risk of off-site shredding is in the process once the truck arrives at the plant. Off-site companies rely upon hand-sorting your documents based on paper grade to maximize revenue captured from recycling. This allows for a potentially serious security breach.
On-site shredding eliminates both of these risks.
We wheel your locked container out to our shredding truck, where it is raised and automatically fed into the shredding system. Our automated feeding system allows for “hands-off” document destruction thereby ensuring complete confidentiality. You can also witness the destruction of your documents through our truck’s internal cameras.
Office shredders leave you and your company open for security violations.
- Discarded shreds only tell the bad guys what to take.
- Employees don’t use shredders often enough.
- Shredding yourself provides no record of compliance.
- Employees should not handle some sensitive information.
- Office shredders break down.
- Office shredders cannot handle large purges.
- Office shredders can’t handle some materials like tapes, CDs, x-rays, blueprints, etc.
The only way that using your own office shredder is less expensive is if you don’t use it. It is far more secure, economical and convenient to collect these materials in a security container than for an office shredder to try and keep up with it.

Regularly scheduled service is priced based on the size and number of carts or consoles at your location plus the frequency of service. Our lockable carts or consoles are left on your premises, at no charge, for the collection of your sensitive information. Apex Shredding returns on a pre-determined schedule to shred the contents on-site. You may set your frequency from weekly to once every twelve weeks. At each service you are presented a Certificate of Destruction indicating that your information was destroyed on that specific date and that it can not be reconstructed. Please call or e-mail us for your specific service quote.
One-time purge service is priced per cart load of material destroyed. We bring an empty cart with us on your scheduled shredding day. We transfer all of your gathered items to our container for destruction. All destruction takes place on site. A Certificate of Destruction is provided upon completion of the service.
