Protect Your Identity and Assets by Shredding

Financial Document Shredding Available in Hayward

 Shredding of sensitive documents is an important practice in many businesses and is even required in several industries. Even if your field doesn’t require the shredding of these documents, there are still many instances where shredding is appropriate, both personally and professionally.

One type of document that always warrants shredding is a bank statement. For people looking to steal a person’s identity, finding a bank statement is one of the easiest ways to do so.

Our company has been serving the East Bay Area for many years, and we provide shredding services that fit the needs of our clients. We can shred in our facility, on your property or you can drop off documents to be shredded, and we have decades of experience in the shredding business.

In the sections to follow, we will discuss a few reasons why it’s so important to shred your bank statements, whether you own a large corporation or you just want to make sure your personal assets are safe.

Protect Your Identity

A bank statement can seem like a standard document, but it holds a wealth of information which someone could use to steal your identity. Bank statements often contain your full legal name, your address, your bank account numbers and even contact information like your email and/or phone number. These items are all sensitive, but taken together they make up a great deal of harmful information if they fall into the wrong hands.

Keep Spending Habits Private

In addition to your personal data, bank statements offer a window into your personal or professional life by clearly laying out your spending habits and the balances of your accounts. On a business level, this information should be a trade secret. If a competitor understands where you get supplies from, what you spend money on and/or how much money you have in the bank, they can certainly use this against you in the local marketplace. Personally, having someone understand your spending habits can tell them your location most days, what you habitually do and other confidential information. By shredding, you eliminate this risk.

We make it easy for our clients to do business with us. We have some clients who have periodic pickups scheduled weekly or monthly where we shred their bank statements and other sensitive documents at our facility off-site. Other people schedule one-time pickups or drop-offs as needed, and we always do our best to accommodate the unique needs of our clients.

Security and professionalism are our top priorities, and we take pride in the service we add to our community. Our team members go through extensive training, we understand complete document shredding is essential so we offer certificates of shredded material if it’s shredded in our facility, or for the most sensitive documents we can shred on your site while you watch. This way, there is complete transparency and you know the job was completed successfully.
