Frequently Asked Questions
Is a certificate provided automatically?
Certificates are issued on request rather than automatically for every job — let us know when you schedule a pickup that you'll need one.
Can I get a certificate for a job that already happened?
If we processed the device, yes — contact us with the details (approximate date, device type) and we'll arrange it.
Does the certificate cover physical shredding as well as wiping?
Yes, the certificate documents whichever method was actually used, including physical shredding for drives handled under our hard drive shredding service.
Can businesses get chain-of-custody documentation for bulk jobs?
Yes — for ITAD and bulk data destruction engagements, ask about chain-of-custody records when scoping the project.
