Many business owners only think about using a document storage company to archive old business records. There are many other times where document removal and storage might be a cost-saving, efficient solution. At Citizens Business Archives, we recommend that you schedule a purge of business documents during office relocations, renovations, closures, and other periods of transition. You will have time to audit your records and determine what needs to be retained, what can be moved to an off-site storage facility, and what should be shredded. Plus, you won’t end up wasting time moving older records from one place to another when they should actually be archived or destroyed. Here’s a closer look at how our professional document pick-up, storage, and shredding services can streamline your office transition.
Helps You Avoid Moving Records Unnecessarily
During a renovation or relocation, you will pay for the cost of moving items back and forth, and for storage. It’s in your best interests to minimize those costs by only moving and storing things that are actually necessary to keep in the office post-renovation or relocation. That means that it’s the perfect time to assess everything you have and determine what stays and what goes. We can remove documents that should be shredded or that don’t need to be stored on site. We will provide secure document shredding and a certificate of destruction for documents that no longer need to be retained, and inventory and store records that do. This will ensure compliance, save you time and money, and free up space and secure important business records.
Protects Sensitive Documents
If you have sensitive or private records in your office, they should only be relocated by a company that adheres to strict chain of custody protocols and follows HIPAA regulations. We will make sure that documents that need to be temporarily relocated, shredded, or stored are protected and invulnerable to breaches or theft. During an office closure, you also need to make sure that important business records are secure. It may not be safe to store them in an office that is shut down for a long period of time, or that looks empty and abandoned. We will carefully inventory your records, archive them, and provide document storage services in our secure, access-controlled facility to prevent theft and loss.
Helps You Stick to Your Timeline
The longer you spend relocating or renovating, the longer your business’ services will be interrupted. Having a plan in place for purging documents and storing them offsite will streamline your move, making it faster and less expensive. Our team can provide rapid, bulk document removal for large volumes of records. We’ll work with you to efficiently determine what should be shredded and what should be retained in our storage facility.
If you’re planning to close your office temporarily, or if you are moving to a new space or renovating your commercial property, Citizens Business Archives can help you maintain the security and safety of your business records. We will provide on-site document shredding services and remove records to our storage facility for inventory and archiving.
