A Certificate of Destruction (COD) is a receipt that proves that confidential or sensitive documents have been properly destroyed in a manner that protects the privacy of the data they contain. For organizations that deal with personally identifiable information (PII) or any other information protected by privacy laws, a Certificate of Destruction becomes an integral part of privacy compliance.
A Certificate of Destruction contains the basic details about the shredding service received, the time and place the shredding was completed, the order number, as well as any other important details.

Shredding is the most secure way to permanently destroy paper documents that contain sensitive or private information. Simply throwing your documents away is not enough, data thieves can still extract potentially sensitive information from paper that has not been properly destroyed. Our mobile shred truck utilizes certified cross-cut shredding technology, decimating any document we put in.
HIPAA compliant shredding ensures documents that contain personally identifiable information (PII) or personal health information (PHI) are destroyed in a way that renders sensitive data unreadable, indecipherable, and impossible to reconstruct. While HIPAA laws do not reference paper shredding requirements directly, it does ask that you take any and all reasonable action to protect private data, even after it leaves your doors. This includes incidental exposure during document disposal.
SecureScan’s mobile shredding service is a great way to avoid unnecessary HIPAA violations for improper records disposal. We use cross-cut shredders, which are significantly more secure than traditional office shredders you may be used to.
Mobile shredding is a process in which an organization’s confidential documents are destroyed on-site by a third party shredding team, usually with the aid of an industrial shredding equipment.

Our on-site shredding team can handle any size job, from just a few boxes to an entire warehouse full of documents. In most cases, we can complete the job same day, or if required, we split the job into multiple service visits.
