Document Destruction for Accountants

Consumer and client privacy legislation such as FACTA (the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act) and GLB (the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act) has made it the law to securely dispose of accounting records. In addition to being a legal requirement, secure document destruction protects your accounting firm from lawsuits and public embarrassment, safeguards your clients from fraud and identity theft, saves you space, time and money and preserves client confidentiality. The Paper Depot meets and in many cases exceeds the requirements of consumer privacy regulations. We even enhance our services during peak periods to ensure the timely destruction of your sensitive information.

With the widespread and increasing use of electronic records, accountants are now finding it necessary to securely dispose of large quantities of old paper documents. At The Paper Depot, we are always up to date on the laws and regulations that affect the accounting industry:

Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)
Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLB)
Privacy Act
Economic Espionage Act (EEA)
Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act (FACTA)
Trade Secret Protections
Implied Contract Breach

Custom Designed Shredding Solutions

We can customize a document destruction and recycling plan* that meets your organization's specific needs and doesn't interfere with your day-to-day operations. We offer on-site and off-site document destruction services on a regularly scheduled or one-time basis. For regularly scheduled document destruction, we provide locked consoles at no cost for you to keep at your facility and deposit your sensitive documents into. Then at regularly appointed times, we will either securely transport the documents in locked containers back to our facility for destruction in our state-of-the-art commercial shredder, or we will bring a shredding truck to your facility to destroy the documents on-site. In either case you may witness the destruction of your documents, and we will provide you with a certificate of destruction. One-time or purge document destruction is also available off-site or on-site and includes a certificate of destruction as well as the option to witness the shredding process.
