Several variables need to be accounted for when transferring documents between locations.  Each variable increases the risk of documents being exposed to the wrong people.  Examples of such variables include:  dependability of the destruction company’s truck drivers, durability of the container being transferred, a locked or unlocked container, proper use of the truck’s doors and locks. 

Due to a broken latch on the back door of a truck, financial information, including checks went flying all over the Bangerter highway.  Local authorities did their best to gather all the documents, but there are no guarantees.   This incident creates a lot of extra work for the bank, having to contact everyone who may have had something in that bin; but worse than that, the increased possibility of identity theft leaves panic and insecurity in their customers, which may cause loss of business.

Faulty locks aren’t the only cause for identity theft hazards.  There is no probable way for you to be sure the documents are being disposed of properly.  Many of the off site shredding companies also store documents.  There is the potential that your box of documents that was meant to be destroyed gets put on a shelf with another company’s stored documents and shipped off to them when they request the return of their materials.

When contracting with an off site shredding company you are gambling with your, and or your company’s, most confidential materials.  It is not viable for you to be sure all your documents make it to the shredder.  Some of the materials may end up in the garbage bin prior to destruction.  Just one piece of paper, containing the right information, landing in the wrong hands results in identity theft.  Do you want to leave that much responsibility on the employees of a company that isn’t yours?

On site shredding companies eliminate these risk factors.  One may try to argue the dependability of the destruction company’s driver could still play into effect.  Go Green Mobile Shredding has done away with this risk, by hiring credible individuals with clean backgrounds, and allowing the customer to watch their files be destroyed, if they choose.

Anyone who has used a shredder more than once has experienced the frustration of the shredder jamming, beeping and taking up more time than necessary. In fact, the number one complaint about personal shredders is they jam too easily. Fellowes has come to our rescue by creating a new line of shredders that is 100% jam proof to rid us of the dreaded shredder issues, or so it seems.

On the Fellowes website there is a video demo of an office employee determined to jam the Fellowes 100% jam proof shredder. During that demo he shreds a paperclip without jamming the machine. You may also find under product details on websites that sell the shredders, paperclips can be run through the machine without a hiccup. That is a bit misleading. In the manual for the Fellowes shredders, under the section of, what the shredder cannot shred is large paperclips. As it turns out, this shredder is 100% jam proof as long as you do not shred anything that will jam the machine. Other items on that list include adhesive labels, transparencies, newspaper, cardboard, laminates, file folders, X-rays or plastic other than CDs, DVDs, and credit cards.

For those who have $400 to spend on their home office shredder, the Fellowes 100% jam proof shredder is a great option. But, if a company is looking for a more efficient and cost saving alternative to their current office shredders, hiring a certified mobile shredding service to do the work for them is a much better option.

Items that aren’t as obvious include, phone logs and messages, visitor logs, drafts of letters, mis-aligned forms and mis-printed copies. The act of discarding such documents prior to destruction conditionally violates several policies set in place for personal protection, including but not limited to HIPPA, Trade Secret Protections, Privacy Act and FACTA. .

Direct violations of the same policies include but are not limited to, brainstorming notes, customer names, drafts of contracts and proposals, obsolete contracts and records, supplier information and training information.

Failing to shred document prior to disposal puts you and your company at risk of sharing private information with identity thieves and competing businesses. For personal protection and to maintain company confidentiality and privacy, nearly all documents in the workplace and any document containing a persons name on it should be shred.
