INFORMATION SECURITY
The fastest growing crime in the United States is identity theft. Crimials have discovered that by mining through ordinary trash, they’re able to harvest personal information on thousands of unsuspecting individuals.
iShred can help maximize information security for you and your clients by shredding the personal correspondences, invoices, legal documents and forms that these predators look for.

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY
Today, iShred handles an average of 60,000 pounds of paper a week. All paper is then bailed and shipped out for recycling. This method of destruction ensures the recycling effort produces illegible results. Please ask for a sample
It takes 17 trees to manufacture 2000 pounds (one ton) of paper, and approximately 80 cubic feet of landfill space to dispose of this paper. iShred is solely responsible for the preservation of approximately 26,520 trees a year, and the saving of 124,800 cubic feet of landfill space on average each year.
