What should be destroyed?
With new legislation becoming ever stricter and identity theft on the rise it is wise to destroy just about everything that is generated and not on a retention schedule. Some examples are: Memos, Price Lists, Tax Records, Receipts, Letters, Any document with social security numbers, visitor logs, training records, etc.
What should we know about selecting a shredding service?
The most important aspect of any service is to verify that they actually do the destruction. There are many companies who just collect the materials and then give them to a recycler or do a variety of other things to cut their costs, which ultimately lower the security of their service.
