Product Destruction
The fee for destruction will vary depending on the material and the amount. Clothing and uniforms are easier to destroy. While items such as shoes, leather products and harder plastic products require more time for the process which influences the fee.
Proshred offers products destruction at customer locations and also, in instances with high volumes, through the Proshred Raleigh facility. The Raleigh facility is a gated facility with 24- hour security and cameras for monitoring.
Proshred provides a certificate of destruction for all document shredding as well as product destruction. The certificate will identify the material, weight and the date of destruction. Customers may also request videos or pictures of the destruction process. When Proshred personnel pick up the material the chain of custody process begins. A work order/service ticket is provided to the customer. The unique number on the work order will be present on the certificate of destruction and invoice. Products that are packaged in a container with a bar code will be scanned and the inventory control number form the barcode will be listed on the certificate of destruction.
Defective products represent a risk for a manufacturer or retail location. Disposing of defective products in trash receptacles will not prevent scavengers or dumpster divers from finding those items and selling the product or using them, which can lead to misuse of the production.
