Document Shredding Services
Serving Metro Boston, MA

Every MyPaperShredding job includes physical destruction of your documents, a signed Certificate of Destruction documenting the date, method, and volume, GPS-tracked transport for off-site jobs, and 100% recycling of all shredded material at a licensed paper mill. You do not need to remove staples, paper clips, rubber bands, or folders — our industrial shredders handle standard office materials as-is.

Drop-off shredding starts at $0.99 per pound. Bring 10 or more boxes and bulk rates apply: $15 per small banker’s box and $20 per large banker’s box. Off-site pickup uses the same per-pound rate plus a travel and tracking fee from $129.95 depending on your zone. Witnessed on-site shredding is $1.99 per pound with a $200 minimum. Every job also includes a $14.95 Certificate of Destruction fee and a $19.95 Environmental Recycling fee. Call (978) 636-0301 for a free custom quote.

Yes. Any HIPAA covered entity — hospital, medical practice, behavioral health provider, dental office, or healthcare administrative organization — can request a Business Associate Agreement before scheduling service. The BAA is required under HIPAA when a vendor handles PHI, and we make it a standard part of our healthcare service. Our destruction process satisfies 45 CFR 164.310(d)(2)(i). Call (978) 636-0301 and confirm you need a BAA when you book.

There is no stated minimum for drop-off. For off-site pickup, there is no volume minimum, but the travel and tracking fee starts at $129.95 — so very small volumes are more cost-effective as a drop-off. Witnessed shredding has a $200 minimum charge regardless of volume. Contact us at (978) 636-0301 and we will help you choose the most cost-effective service for your actual volume.

A Certificate of Destruction is a signed, dated document that records the date, method, and volume of physical destruction for your materials. For HIPAA-covered entities it satisfies 45 CFR 164.310(d)(2)(i). For businesses subject to MA 201 CMR 17.00, FACTA, or GLBA it provides documented proof of proper disposal. If your records are ever the subject of a complaint or audit, the Certificate is your evidence of compliance. A $14.95 fee applies to every job.

MA 201 CMR 17.00 requires every business that holds personal information about Massachusetts residents to properly dispose of records containing that data. This applies to every industry. Healthcare providers also face HIPAA requirements. Financial firms face FACTA and GLBA. And MA 93H creates mandatory data breach notification obligations when personal records are improperly discarded and exposed. A Certificate of Destruction documents your compliance with all of these laws.

Yes. We physically destroy hard drives, SSDs, USB drives, backup tapes, and other electronic media. Physical destruction renders all data permanently unrecoverable and satisfies NIST SP 800-88, HIPAA, and MA 201 CMR 17.00. A Certificate of Destruction is issued per device, recording the make, model, and serial number. Hard drive destruction can be added to any paper shredding appointment. Call (978) 636-0301 for pricing.

In most cases we schedule within 2 to 3 business days across all 14 metro Boston service areas. For urgent needs — a compliance deadline, office relocation, or estate situation — call us directly at (978) 636-0301 and we will do our best to accommodate you. Our hours are Monday through Thursday 7am to 6pm, Friday 7am to 5pm, and Saturday 8am to 2pm.

Yes. Recurring accounts receive locked shredding consoles that stay at your location between service visits. Staff deposit documents as they accumulate. We collect and shred on your scheduled frequency — monthly, quarterly, or a custom interval. Recurring accounts receive volume pricing and a Certificate of Destruction at every service visit. This is the right solution for offices, medical practices, and any organization with ongoing document disposal needs. Call (978) 636-0301 to set up a recurring plan.
