You have stacks of paperwork in your office that have been sitting there for months, years or even decades. Most of those documents are out of date or no longer needed. So why not just throw them out? Keep in mind that many of these documents could contain confidential information about your company or your clients. Identity theft is a real threat. Shredding your confidential information can ensure that it’s properly disposed and will help you avoid the threat of identity theft.

It’s also a wise decision to destroy media that you no longer use, such as tapes of all sizes, disks, CDs, videotapes, cartridges, x-rays, hard drives, monitors and film.
Depending on your industry, document destruction could be (and likely is) the law. You are legally obligated to destroy documents that contain any personal information of your clients.
