How Often Should You Schedule On-Site Shredding?

1
HOW OFTEN SHOULD YOU SCHEDULE ON-SITE SHREDDING?
2
VOLUME OF SENSITIVE DOCUMENTS
The frequency of your shredding service should
correspond to the volume of sensitive documents
your business generates. Organizations that deal
with high volumes of confidential information,
such as legal firms, financial institutions, and
healthcare providers, may need to schedule
shredding more frequently, possibly on a weekly
or bi-weekly basis.
3
REGULATORY COMPLIANCE
For many industries, regulations dictate the
handling and disposal of sensitive information.
Failing to properly dispose of sensitive data in
compliance with such laws can result in severe
penalties. If your organization is subject to
specific regulations, you might need to opt for
more frequent shredding services to ensure
compliance and mitigate risks.

TYPE OF INFORMATION HANDLED
The type of information your organization deals
with can also influence your shredding schedule.
If your office processes paperwork containing
personal identification information such as
Social Security numbers, financial records, or
proprietary business data, it is crucial to
prioritize shredding.
5
STORAGE SPACE LIMITATIONS
If your office space is limited and you find
yourself accumulating piles of documents that
need to be shredded, it may be time to reconsider
your shredding frequency. Regularly scheduled
on-site shredding can help to maintain a
clutter-free and organized workplace, allowing
you to maximize your available space for
essential business activities.
6
ORGANIZATIONAL POLICIES
Establishing a document management policy can
streamline your shredding schedule. Creating
protocols detailing how long documents should be
retained before shredding helps ensure
consistency within your organization. Staff
should be trained on these protocols so that
sensitive documents do not remain unshredded
longer than necessary, reducing the risk of
unauthorized access.
