How Long is Long Enough?

Companies file away storage boxes year after year. Often, they are kept long after the legal requirement has been met. Shredding has become a necessary service that enables companies to meet regulatory requirements while protecting customers, employees, and the business from identity theft. It is recommended that you shred files as soon as it’s legally permissible.
