What is Home Office Shredding and Why Do You Need It?
Six out of 10 knowledge workers in the U.S. work remotely, with that number likely to rise. About two-thirds of businesses who adopted work from home policies due to COVID-19 expect to make those policies long term. With more staff working from home, traveling, and keeping flexible hours, private documents are increasingly likely to leave the office. Organizations now face a higher risk of security breaches for remote employees than ever before.
Privacy legislation extends beyond the office setting, obligating businesses to establish systems and procedures for safeguarding confidential information in and out of the office. Companies are still liable in the case of a breach or lack of compliance even when it takes place off-site.
A professional shredding service is the best way to dispose of confidential documents in a home office. Professional shredders cross-cut, a more destructive technique than personal home shredders perform. A shredding company can also guarantee a secure chain of custody and a certificate of destruction confirming results. These professionals are familiar with the challenges and compliance regulations that affect your business’s industry
Develop A Confidential Shredding Program for Remote Employees
To assist organizations in meeting legislative requirements, PROSHRED® has developed integrated shredding service programs for home office records destruction that work in conjunction with an organization’s in-office scheduled shredding system. By arming staff with the necessary tools for securely handling confidential documents outside the office, and by assisting you with the education of staff regarding how to best maintain confidentiality, PROSHRED® offers your organization one of the most comprehensive home office shredding programs available.
We can serve large businesses, with employees in one city or across the nation. We know which compliance laws apply to your business and adapt our shredding schedule to fit your needs. For part-time remote workers, the SHRED BAG program offers a secure and easy way to transport sensitive documents from between home and office for shredding. This process improves security and efficiency for confidential documents for organizations of all sizes.
Home Office Shredding for Small Businesses
Home shredding services are helpful for small businesses, as well. In addition to home office workers employed by large organizations, there are also an increasing number of small businesses throughout the country that handle sensitive documents. Entrepreneurs and small business owners may work from an office, from home, from a co-working space, or while traveling. A lack of a single, permanent location only increases the risk that important materials could be mishandled.
Even a sole proprietor or a company with a small staff needs to protect employees’ and customer’s personal information. A slip in compliance or a security breach could cause permanent damage to the finances and reputation of your small business. There is also the need to protect intellectual property and confidential business records. Secure home shredding ensures any size of business can dispose of its documents responsibly.
How Our Home Office Shredding Process Works
One of the benefits of working with PROSHRED® is that our home shredding process is simple, convenient and effective steps:
- Documents go into a secure bin, console or SHRED BAG
- Our mobile shredding truck arrives for pick-up
- Documents are shredded on-site
- You receive a certificate of destruction
- Shredded waste is taken for recycling or final processing
- You can arrange for recurring or one-time services
Compare Professional Home Office vs. Personal Home Shredders
When comparing small quantity shredding options, you might wonder whether a personal home shredder can handle the job. You will need to consider short- and long-term costs, security and efficiency. In doing so, you will find that professional shredders make the process more efficient, since they use more powerful shredders. Personal shredders tend to overheat and require cooldown periods.
Professional shredders more fully destroy the documents, as well, with techniques like cross-shredding. They can also handle items other than paper, like folders, hard drives and digital media.
Finally, a professional shredding company can ensure materials are recycled correctly and provide you with confirmation.
Environmentally Friendly Home Office Shredding
Companies of all sizes, from entrepreneurs to nationwide enterprises, care about their environmental impact. Sustainability is increasingly shown to make a positive impression on customers and employees and helps to preserve resources on which we all depend. PROSHRED® works with local recycling partners and offers a Green Loyalty Program. Get the peace of mind that your confidential papers are securely destroyed and responsibly recycled afterward.

My first visit could have been rough, but Bob and the crew there made everything so worthwhile. Showed up one day and they had an Internet outage, and we’re closed. But, I left a message, Bob called me back and promised me to make it right. And he did! Went above and beyond to help me get my shredding project done efficiently and at a great cost. I will use them again for sure, and soon! Highly recommended.

I've used this Proshred once a year several years for my company to do our annual purge of old documents. They are great and easy to work with! They brought a truck to our office to shred about 2 dozen boxes of filing at once. At every stage it is quick and painless, and the price is reasonable. I do recommend having your documents in boxes. I plan to keep working with them!

Used ProShred for shredding piles of personal paper and made couple of trips to the location. On both occasions Marcus helped me. His professionalism and pleasant attitude embodied Customer Service. He rolled out the bin, we emptied out the bags, boxes and he would take it in for shredding. Made it all simple and easy.Love the drop off service and would highly recommend them.

Proshred did a great job for me. I asked for service at my home and they sent a truck. Service was very quick. The filled up a container with my papers, rolled it to truck and I was able to watch a camera feed while the machine shred all my papers. Very cool. Darrien was the technician and he was very nice and knew what he was doing. It was nice to work with a Pro like Darrien.

Convenient location. $10 per banker's box full of paper. Price seems fair to me. However, the lady that helped me was rushed and unfriendly and promised to send the destruction certificate once the printer was working again, but didn't. I don't like it when people don't follow through. Have used them twice in a year and I recommend them.

I needed to clear out some old filing and paperwork that would be too much work for a personal shredder, so I called Proshed and the salesperson (Greg) was great and set me up right away. Great service and guidance and I will use them again.

What a great service! They scheduled a two hour window, called the day before to confirm it, called when they were on their way and arrived 10 minutes later. The shredding was quick and easy. The tech they sent was SO nice! Courteous, efficient, helpful and accommodating. In fact he was so great I wrote this to the company, “I just wanted to let you know I was DELIGHTED by the service tech you sent to do my shredding. If there were more people like him in the world it would be a better place. A way way way better place. Please tell him thank you for me, I really enjoyed working with your company and and will recommend you in the future to any one who asks.” So, yeah, I highly recommend Proshred!

We have used Proshred services for more than 10 years. Recently we had a need to purge about 10 years of documents from our offsite storage location. They made the process easy via emails not wasting my time on the phone to get it set up. Made suggestions that would save us time and money. Discounted the extra service without making us ask or check other options to get all the archives shredded. The driver was simply AWESOME. He called to ask if he could arrive early and then assisted us with the process of emptying boxes into their containers to load them into the shred truck. He shredded 18 containers of paper onsite in a very reasonable amount of time without a single complaint or losing his smile. He was professional and polite as everyone I have dealt with from the Company. We can't thank him enough for his help as we worked him very hard that day!

Our company has been using ProShred for several years. We have been very pleased. They have great customer service and the guys who come for the pickups are so nice and friendly. We are located in Harrisburg and they still come out to our location. After doing price comparisons, they are very inexpensive with no hidden fees that we experienced with other shredding companies in the area. Great company, highly recommended!
