Phil:

Although I am now back in the consulting realm, when I last ran a records 
management program, not too long ago, I was the person managing the 
contracts for both records storage and shredding.  I did report the volume 
of paper records shredded (locked boxes in our buildings, as well as records 
shredded at the off-site storage vendor locations - after 
permissions/approvals were obtained) to our facilities group who, by law, 
had to report the same to the county where we were located.
