Q:
Why use our shredding services instead of purchasing your own shredding equipment?
A:
Money - The costs your business will incur from buying your own personal shredding equipment, along with paying your well-trained employees to complete the shredding process will be extensive. Outsourced shredding services will save you money that could be spent on more profitable operations.
Time - What takes your employees a full workday to destroy, we can shred in 10 minutes. That leaves time for your employees to do their jobs for which they were hired.
Safety - Personal shredders leave room for operator error. Shirt sleeves, ties, and jewelry become workplace hazards and could become entangled in shredding equipment causing injury to an employee. Employee injuries will cost you time and money and will be a detriment to the efficiency of your business.
