One-Time Purge Shredding Service
If you’ve never considered or heard of ShredPro Secure’s one-time purge shredding service, you’re not alone. Many people shy away from partnering with a shredding company because of common misconceptions like:
- “We’re just cleaning out files and can shred it ourselves.”
- “Shredding companies only work with large businesses and big shredding jobs.”
- “We don’t need regular shredding right now.”
However, our one-time purge shredding service addresses all these concerns by offering secure shredding for any volume of documents, even if it’s a one-time job. This service helps you comply with state and federal privacy laws by ensuring your confidential information is properly destroyed. Plus, shredding documents yourself isn’t as easy or safe as it might seem.
Why You Shouldn’t Use Your Staff for Shredding
Your employees were hired to perform tasks that directly contribute to your company’s success, so asking them to spend valuable time shredding documents is not the best use of their skills or your resources. Here are some key reasons why using your staff for shredding is inefficient and costly:
1. Financial Impact
Consider the wages you pay your staff and the time they spend feeding paper into a slow office shredder. Every minute spent shredding is time taken away from more productive, revenue-generating tasks. In the long run, this scenario isn’t helping your bottom line.
2. Time Consumed
Shredding isn’t as simple as tossing a stack of papers into a shredder. Employees must first remove staples, paperclips, and other fasteners. Then, they feed only a few sheets at a time, deal with jams, wait for the shredder to cool down, and empty the bin when it’s full. Office shredders are notoriously slow and prone to malfunctions, which wastes even more time.
3. Employee Morale
Shredding is a mundane and often frustrating task. When employees are stuck doing low-value work like this, it can negatively affect their morale and productivity. Staff members may grow frustrated as their real work piles up while they’re handling a tedious chore.
4. Security Risks
Shredding documents in-house increases the risk of sensitive information being mishandled. Documents may sit unattended, waiting to be shredded, creating a security gap. Additionally, most office shredders don’t provide the level of destruction required to ensure that documents can’t be reconstructed. Employees may be tempted to bypass the process entirely and toss documents directly into the trash, risking non-compliance with privacy laws.

6. Common Reasons for a One-Time Purge
There are plenty of reasons why you might need a one-time purge shredding service, including:
- Moving Locations: If your business is relocating, shredding unnecessary documents can help lighten the load and make the move more manageable.
- Creating Space: Office space is valuable. Clearing out outdated or unused files can free up room for more important work and make your office more efficient.
- Retention Periods Expired: Many documents are subject to legal retention periods, after which they must be securely destroyed. Our service ensures you remain compliant with document disposal regulations.
