Two ways we destroy your data

We match the right destruction method to your device type, data sensitivity, and compliance requirements — so you're never over- or under-protected.

Physical hard drive shredding

Hard drives are fed through an industrial shredder, reducing platters to small fragments. The most thorough method — physically impossible to recover data from shredded media.

Certified data wiping

NIST 800-88 compliant software overwrite for drives that will be resold or reused. DoD 5220.22-M standard available. Preserves hardware value while ensuring complete data removal.
