One Time Purge Shredding

Document shredding with minimal preparation, on-site or off-site when you need it.

Ideal solution for office clean-outs. Minimal preparation – leave your documents in your container, file cabinet or file boxes. We will place your material into our 64-gallon bins and shred it right there where you can watch it on the shredding-truck-mounted video monitors. Certificate of Destruction is issued when shredding is completed.

Southland Shredding makes your document clean-out easy. We offer 4 types of shredding.

01.

On-Site Shredding | Our Signature Service

Southland Shredding will send a high-speed shredding truck to your home, office, or storage facility on a designated day to take care of your shredding needs.

We will call you, the afternoon prior to your service, with a two-hour arrival window of time so you can plan your day. We simply ask you to be available during that two-hour window of time, and have your material staged and ready. If your material is in a remote location, let us know and we will arrange to have the driver give you a call ahead so you can meet us there.

02.

Off-Site Shredding at Our Ontario Facility

By popular demand, Southland Shredding offers an off-site document destruction service in Southern California. We will pick up your material and securely destroy it at our facility.

This service is especially useful for those locations whose access availability doesn’t allow tall trucks (e.g. under a parking garage), or doesn’t allow vehicles to remain on the street for any length of time. Great service for areas where no machinery noise is tolerable, or when minimal interruptions to your work area can seem monumental.

03.

Drop Off Shredding

If you only have a few files or boxes, take advantage of the convenience of dropping off your material at our Ontario headquarters for destruction when our trucks return at the end of the day.

If you will have more than 15 boxes, we call that a “purge.” Please call ahead so we can have someone available to help unload your vehicle. All material is destroyed at the end of the day when our mobile trucks have returned from their routes. We do not make appointments for destruction at the facility as we do not know when the trucks will be in. If you must see your material being destroyed, we will send a mobile shredding unit to your facility or home and destroy it for you at our minimum charge.

04.

Non Local Drop Off Centers

There is no minimum charge at these locations. Please contact the center for fee information. These centers are NOT related to Southland Shredding.

For a nominal fee you will have the peace of mind that your confidential information will be destroyed, protecting you against identity theft and unauthorized persons viewing your confidential information.

How Does the Process Work?

We place your material into our 64-gallon bins and shred it right there where you can watch it on the shredding-truck-mounted video monitors. Our trucks are equipped with a video monitor allowing you to personally witness the document destruction process. (See Video of this process) All shredded material is recycled, meeting California recycling requirements. Our trained personnel then provide you with a Certificate of Destruction, certifying complete destruction of your documents.

What Documents Should I Shred?

Individuals and business should shred any of the following items they no longer need:

  • Financial documents-bank statements
  • Cancelled or unused checks, tax returns
  • Insurance forms and records
  • Legal documents-wills, contracts
  • Medical records
  • Credit card documents-receipts, statements, offers
  • Junk mail with your name and address
  • Deceased family member records
  • Customer lists and personal information
  • Company sensitive information-management reports and strategies, human resource data, price lists, bids and proposals, marketing information
  • Government classified information
  • Any confidential information you do not want in the hands of the wrong people
Unlike small office shredders, our equipment will chew through thick bound computer print-outs. Material may be left in file folders, hanging folders, or envelopes. Fasteners such as binder clips, staples, paper clips, and rubber bands do not have to be removed.
Recycling icon

Southland Shredding thinks green, and we recycle 100% of the materials we shred.

All shredded material is sent out for recycling, and is eventually used to make many kinds of paper products, contributing to environmental preservation. Recycling all shredded material means fewer trees are destroyed, and landfills are not needlessly being filled with recyclable paper.
