Nishika, we have been utilizing a similar service for decades, generally
sending out 10 pallets of boxes (500 boxes) at a time, and destroying as
many as 70 tons per year. Usually companies want you to generate this
kind of volume to offer this type of service. Our volume is generated
from our records center. A mobile shredding process would be too
expensive and impractical. Primary things to look for in this "plant
based" process are secure transport and storage; also potential use of
third parties for destruction.

The National Association of Information Destruction (NAID) has a
certification process for this plant based form of destruction. You can
get the details at:
