Common Questions from Oakland Businesses

How does Corodata charge for shredding services?

Corodata charges based on the volume of paper you need shredded.

  • For smaller quantities, we measure by standard banker boxes (10” x 12” x 15”) and charge per box.

Pricing:

  • Off-site shredding: averaging at $6.70 per box (minimum $89)
  • On-site shredding: averaging at $7.20 per box (minimum $99)
  • Recurring service: Starts at $39/month

Final pricing depends on factors like volume, service type, frequency, and location. We offer custom quotes to ensure the best value.

What is the difference between onsite and offsite shredding?

On-site Shredding

We bring our mobile shredding truck to your location and shred your documents right there. It’s convenient and gives you the peace of mind of watching the process happen.
Note: We cannot offer on-site shredding for residential addresses due to legal restrictions. However, we can pick up your documents from your home and securely shred them off-site.

Off-site Shredding

We collect your documents and transport them to our secure facility for shredding. This option is ideal for larger volumes and is often more cost-effective.

Both methods are fully secure, NAID AAA Certified, and compliant with all privacy regulations.

How do I know my documents have been securely shredded?

Your security is our top priority. Corodata is NAID AAA Certified, which means we meet the highest industry standards for secure document destruction. Every shredding service is completed by trained professionals, and you’ll receive a Certificate of Destruction for your records. This certificate provides proof that your documents were shredded securely and in compliance with privacy laws.

How should I prepare my materials for shredding?

Preparing your materials for shredding is simple, and we offer flexible options to meet your needs:

  • Banker Boxes: If your documents are already packed in standard banker boxes, you're all set! Our team will pick up the sealed boxes directly from your location and shred the contents securely.
  • Loose Materials or Trash Bags: If your materials aren’t boxed and are instead in trash bags or loose, we recommend using our secure 64-gallon shredding bins. We'll deliver the bins to your facility, and you can fill them up at your convenience. Shredding is then billed per bin.

If you’re unsure how to prep or want guidance on what option works best for you, our team is happy to help. Contact us.

The driver, Johnny was went out of his way to explain the destruction process and prepared paperwork. He also went out of his way by grabbing the boxes we had already stacked in the garage. Once dumped in the bin he made an extra effort to accommodate us to keep a few of the empty boxes for future use as well. He’s a keeper and has a great attitude.
Thanks Marshall

I have worked with several other document storage companies throughout the years and nothing compares to the warm, knowledgeable and patient customer service that I’ve encountered with Corodata. Every one of the Corodata team members have always been accommodating, professional and friendly. Letitia has been my life-saver when I’m working with my customers in trying to locate that “file, box, etc”, in addition to introducing and helping me navigate through the Corodata website. Jack is key when I have to research smart cost effective options for our organization as it pertains to office and document storage. Michelle and Kiesha are fantastic at hand holding during the destruction process (it’s hard to get rid of stuff). Vincente and Danny are always on time with all of our pickups and deliveries. Thank you Team Corodata!

Round Table Pizza, Inc. has been with Corodata for over 13 years. We have been approached by several other storage facility vendors during this time. These other vendors have made promises, cut rates, and done every sales trick in the book to get our business. Bottom Line.... Nobody beats the Corodata staff's customer service nor their price. Why would we go anywhere else? We wouldn't!!! Thank you Corodata for all that you do and the service and excellence you all provide. God bless.
