Recycling is a major focus of Absolute Shredding.
All documents that are shredded are recycled. In addition to paper shredding we work with our clients to recycle many items that are commonly discarded at many facilities.

Want to know the impact you can have on the environment by using us?
One Ton Of Recycled Paper Saves:
Water (gallons) ............... 7,000
Electricity (kilowatts) ...... 4,100
Trees ...................................... 17
Landfill (cubic yards) ........... 3
Oil (gallons) .......................... 2
mental note:
If your organization is using an office shredder instead of a certified shredding service, chances are that at least one of your office mates is dumping shredded paper in the trash, instead of the recycling bin. That means your organization is not only NOT recycling all the paper they should, they’re also exposing confidential information to “dumpster divers” who can sift through your trash and then piece together strips of company information for their own personal gain. We will recycle all your paper with our secure recycling program, while keeping your discarded information safe.

Absolute Shredding has been a great added service to our schools, with the convenience of our employees being able to place important documents into the provided bin, and it being securely shred once a month is a nice time saver for the employees. Absolute Shredding services are consistent and employees are very friendly, along with their very affordable monthly price! Our company is very pleased with their services!
