Digital devices store far more sensitive data than most organizations realize — and simply deleting files or formatting a drive is not enough to prevent recovery. PACE Shredding provides certified IT hardware destruction certificate, physically destroying storage media so that data becomes completely and permanently irrecoverable.
Our IT hardware destruction certificate is performed by NAID AAA Certified technicians using industrial-grade shredding equipment that reduces drives and media to fragments too small for reconstruction. Unlike degaussing (which only works on magnetic media) or software-based erasure (which may leave residual data), physical shredding is the most definitive method of data destruction available — and the only method accepted by the NSA for classified data.
We handle the full range of storage media: traditional HDDs, solid-state drives (SSDs), USB flash drives, backup tapes, CDs and DVDs, optical media, cell phones, tablets, and specialized formats including microfiche and X-ray film. Our service includes serial number logging and inventory tracking, ensuring every device is accounted for throughout the destruction process.
Upon completion, you receive a Certificate of Destruction documenting each item destroyed — an essential record for HIPAA, FACTA, and FISMA compliance, as well as corporate governance and IT asset management audits. For organizations requiring additional assurance, witnessed destruction is available, allowing your representative to observe the process directly.
After destruction, all materials are directed to certified e-waste recycling partners, keeping hazardous components out of landfills and supporting your organization’s sustainability commitments. PACE Shredding’s IT hardware destruction certificate combines data security, regulatory compliance, and environmental responsibility in a single streamlined service.
