Destruction Process

UDS places secure containers in appropriate locations throughout your premises. At regularly scheduled intervals, UDS comes to your place of business or home and destroys records on the spot. Locked security cabinets, supplied free of charge, store the documents until they are removed by a bonded and insured employee and shredded in UDS's truck on your premises. Once shredded, a certificate of destruction is issued and the paper recycled. The on-site option provides a convenient, secure and environmentally safe way to destroy sensitive information. By using the on-site option, the cost of destruction is reduced: no shredder to purchase, no employee wages to pay, no mess to clean and no disposal cost.



Our trucks feature enclosed automated equipment where all shredding takes place on board, never requiring hand feeding. This allows for hands off document destruction on-site, ensuring complete confidentiality and compliance with HIPAA regulations. Our equipment destroys your material so it is no longer readable or able to be pieced together. You absolutely have no concern about invasion of privacy as all material is immediately shredded in our mobile trucks. A Certificate of Destruction is also provided as evidence the material was properly destroyed.
UDS is the only document destruction company in Southern California to use this state-of-the-art technology. Our technicians never see your documents or worry about documents being blown away, as with exterior top-dump systems.
