Why Shred?

TO PROTECT AGAINST PERSONAL IDENTITY THEFT
The Back Office is open to individuals for the destruction of personal documents and records. Bring your personal shredding to our offices. Our staff will unload, weigh and destroy your documents. If you want to observe the destruction of your records, you may do so. Certificates of Destruction provided on request. Our offices are conveniently located at the corner of North Laurent and Oak Street, where we office with Armstrong Mayflower.

TO PROTECT AGAINST NON-COMPLIANCE ISSUES
Federal law mandates that all businesses, healthcare facilities and financial institutions protect the confidential information of their clientele. To some degree, all of these laws require secure document destruction that only high-grade, third party shredders such as The Back Office can offer.

TO PROTECT CUSTOMER, CLIENT AND PATIENT PRIVACY
Whether you are a small company or a large corporation, you have confidential customer information in your possession that you need to protect.

The Back Office is an extension of your professional responsibilities, and we stay up to date on current privacy legislation including but not limited to FACTA, HIPAA, Hi-tech HIPAA, GLB, Red Flag Rules, SOX and Texas Bill 698.

TO PROTECT COMPANY FINANCIAL AND PROPRIETARY INFORMATION
