Many people have asked me over the years how recycling their shredded
paper impacts the environment in a positive way. Here is why that’s
such a good question---we all know that the knowledge of a securely
destroyed document is one bookend of the event, responsibly conserving
our nation’s natural resources is the other. For example, when Integra Certified Document Destruction recently partnered with the Elkhart Chamber of Commerce and the Elkhart County Solid Waste Management District for the annual Clean Your Files Day, our goal for the 350 people that showed up was to provide the peace of mind that is inherent with destroying items like old files, tax records, cancelled checks and the like. But, that’s only half of the story.
