Our uniformed security professionals remove your secure documents to our locked truck, safely transporting it to our secure shredding facility.

  • Upon the arrival of materials for destruction, the containers are scanned for record keeping.
  • Once recorded, they are then staged to begin the shredding process.
  • The material is fed into the shredder, which processes about 10 tons of paper per hour.
  • Material is destroyed to particle size no wider than 5/8″ shred width (5/8″ is industry standard). While industry standards dictate a single shred, your information is always cross-cut at the Royal Document Destruction Columbus facility – just another way we exceed expectations.
  • Once shredded, the material is commingled with similar grade recycled paper to further separate similar information. This paper is immediately baled and shipped by semi-load to paper mills for recycling
  • A certificate of destruction is issued that verifies that the materials were destroyed in compliance with all federal laws.
