Compliance & Certifications

Regulatory compliance you can count on

Non-compliance penalties can cripple a business. We ensure every document, every drive, and every transaction meets the standards that protect you and your clients.

NAID AAA Certified

The highest standard in the information destruction industry. Our facilities and processes meet the rigorous requirements set by the National Association for Information Destruction.

HIPAA Compliant

Healthcare organizations need more than shredding — they need a partner who understands the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. We design our processes around HIPAA requirements.

FACTA Ready

The Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act requires proper disposal of consumer report information. We help financial institutions, healthcare providers, and retailers stay on the right side of FACTA.

GLBA Compliant

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act governs how financial institutions handle consumer data. Our destruction protocols are built to satisfy GLBA's Safeguards Rule requirements.

R2/RIOS Certified

For IT asset disposition, we hold R2/RIOS certification — the global standard for responsible electronics recycling and data security in the supply chain.

State Privacy Laws

Wisconsin and other state privacy regulations continue to evolve. We stay current on every applicable state law so your business doesn't have to.

How It Works

Simple. Secure. Certified.

Getting your documents destroyed shouldn't be complicated. Here's what working with us looks like from start to finish.

01

Tell Us What You Need

Call us, email us, or fill out our contact form. We'll ask about your volume, schedule, and any compliance requirements — then recommend the best approach for your situation.

02

We Schedule & Prepare

Whether it's a recurring weekly pickup or a one-time event, we coordinate everything — including providing secure lockable containers if needed. You'll get a confirmed appointment with a dedicated point of contact.

03

Secure Collection & Destruction

Our certified team arrives on time, handles your materials with care, and destroys them using NAID-certified methods. On-site, you watch every document become unreadable. Off-site, your chain-of-custody is tracked at every step.

04

Certificate of Destruction

Every job comes with a detailed certificate of destruction — your proof of compliance for audits and regulatory reviews. We maintain records per your retention preference, so you always have documentation when you need it.

Client Feedback

Trusted by Madison businesses

We let our work speak for itself — but here's what some of our clients have shared about their experience.

"We switched to Shred-it after a compliance audit flagged gaps in our document disposal process. They not only fixed the problem — they helped us build a policy that's still holding up two years later. The certificates of destruction make audit season straightforward."

Practice Manager
Healthcare Clinic, Madison

"The on-site shredding at our annual open enrollment was seamless. Twenty staff members, hundreds of packets, all destroyed in front of us with certificates handed out the same day. It made a stressful process feel routine — something we really appreciate."

Benefits Director
Mid-Size Employer, Madison

"We needed to dispose of several racks of servers and a fleet of laptops. Shred-it handled the ITAD side with R2 certification and made sure every drive was wiped to NIST standards. Their report was thorough enough for our board to review without follow-up questions."
