We protect businesses and their customers by providing highly secure, on-site and off-site shredding, to help them comply with HIPAA, GLB and FACTA, as well as all other federal information destruction laws.

Most people who choose a shredding company are unaware that there are major differences between companies in terms of information security, price and customer service. Please take some time to review our website and educate yourself on your information security options, so that you can make the choice that's right for your organization.

7 Reasons Why More People Choose Shred Works

1. Highest Security Rating
   Shred Works has been awarded the highest security rating, “AAA Certified” by the National Association for Information Destruction (NAID). NAID acts as an independent auditor, checking a shredding company’s compliance in 22 critical areas, including everything from shred size to employee background checks. They award their highest rating to only a select few companies that meet these stringent security standards. In fact, fewer than 1 in 4 California shredding companies have been AAA Certified by NAID.
   
   
2. On-Time Service
   We’re so confident that we’ll be on time, we offer an “On Time or Shred For Free” service guarantee. That simply means if we ever miss your regularly scheduled service…it’s FREE!
   
   
3. Lifetime Price-Freeze Guarantee
   Shred Works has a Lifetime Price Freeze Guarantee. Simply stated the low per-bin price you're paying today will never increase, for any reason, for as long you remain our customer.
   
   
4. Next Day Service
   With nine trucks covering the entire Bay Area, we have the capacity to respond to any customer with a last minute shredding need. Just call before noon and we guarantee we’ll pick up all your confidential materials no later than the next business day.
   
   
5. Additional Security Features
   We employ a number of additional security features that most other shredding companies choose not to use, because they’re just too expensive. First we have GPS tracking on all our trucks, so that we know where our drivers are 100% of the time. In our plant facility, the doors are always locked and pass-card entry is required to gain access to our shred area. We also monitor our facility with 16 strategically placed security cameras, and keep a video record of this activity for a minimum of six months. Finally we “double shred” everything to achieve a confetti-like output that can never be read or reassembled by anyone. We do all this to ensure that no unauthorized personnel will ever have access to your confidential information.
   
   
6. Unmatched Insurance Protection
   All shredding companies provide general liability insurance to protect their customers. However, most of these shredding companies limit this protection to $1,000,000. But if the unthinkable happens, this coverage may not be good enough. That’s why Shred Works exceeds industry standards by providing General Liability insurance coverage of $2,000,000 as well as Errors and Omissions insurance. So you can be confident that your organization is protected.
   
   
7. Certified Drivers
   Before any of our drivers step foot in your facility they have gone through a three step certification process. First we run a pre-employment criminal background check and submit a report to an auditor from the National Association for Information Destruction. Then the newly hired driver completes 82 hours of classroom and on the job training, before they are allowed to service a client by themselves. Finally to maintain their certification, all drivers must submit to ongoing, random drug testing by an independent firm and comply with our appearance and behavior standards.
