Digital Destruction
Hard Drive Shredding

Erasing or wiping your hard drive is not enough to fully ensure your information is removed from your hard drive. Like paper records, it’s important to properly destroy hard drives.

Certified media destruction tools are the safest way to effectively and permanently ensure the large amounts of information are no longer accessible. Physical hard drive destruction is the best solution for discarding unwanted hard drives, tape drives, discs.

Urban Impact schedules hard drive shreds throughout the year. If you would like a pick up and destruction of your hard drive and media material, please fill out a "Get a Free Quote" form.
