SHRED FOR ALL THE RIGHT REASONS!

The vast majority of organizations SHRED for all the right reasons:

• To Protect against Identity Theft.
• To Obey Laws, requiring shredding.
• To Protect their patients and clients privacy.
• To Protect their company and shareholders by safeguarding proprietary trade information.

SHREDDING FACTS:

IDENTITY THEFT and information-based fraud is the fastest growing crime in America. The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that items left for waste collection are no longer protected as private property. In fact, it is common practice among identity thieves, private investigators and investigative reporters to look in dumpsters, commonly referred to as Dumpster Diving, as a source of easy to find information and headlines. DON'T BECOME A VICTIM!

MINIMIZE THE RISK:

• Always SHRED on a regular schedule.
• Use SHRED ALERT for all your destruction and shredding needs.
• Treat all documents and mail correspondence equally . . . SHRED everything.
• Implement a company-wide document destruction and protection policy.
