Code of Ethics

California Document Shredding became the first shredding company in the Los Angeles area certified by NAID for on-site shredding, and remains as one of a small handful of companies holding this distinction. This means that our employees and procedures have been audited and have been found to meet the highest standards in security for on-site document shredding. These standards include such things as shred size, secure handling of the documents from your location through the shredding and recycling process, and insurance and bonding.
