Why shred

Shredding is the strongest answer when data is sensitive or the drive is already dead.
Physical destruction
The drive itself is destroyed, so there is no data to recover.

Processed at our Brooklyn Park facility.
Shredding or wiping?
Wiping keeps a drive usable, which is fine for many laptops and desktops. Shredding is the better choice for drives that held health records, financial files, legal documents or customer data, and for failed drives that cannot be wiped at all.
You can send us a single drive or an entire server room. We also handle the rest of your retired equipment, including laptops, desktops and servers, so one visit can cover everything.
We serve Minneapolis and all major suburbs within 35 miles, including Brooklyn Park and St. Paul. Open Monday to Friday, 9am to 4pm.

FAQ

Is shredding better than wiping?
