Secure Hard Drive Destruction Services

Discover how Shred-it can protect your business by properly disposing of unwanted hard drives.

Hard Drive Data Destruction Services

The majority of businesses don’t use a professional service to physically destroy old hard drives, USBs or other hardware that contain confidential information. Physical destruction is a sure way of ensuring that the data on an old hard drive is completely destroyed.

Dispose Hard Drive the right way and protect your business

If your hard drive disposal process includes erasing, reformatting, wiping or degaussing old hard drives, you and your customers are still vulnerable. In fact, as long as the drives are physically intact, private information can still be retrieved. 

Why choose Shred-it for hard drive destruction?

Shred-it applies the same proven, state-of-the-art, chain of custody protocols for hard drive destruction as we do for document destruction, ensuring safe, secure destruction of your media.

  • Regularly scheduled collection or on-demand service
