After the consultation review and we establish the style of bin and the type of service needed we simply deliver the bins or consoles to your location. Next we schedule a routine pickup or one time purge pickup of the containers. Our service driver arrives onsite on a pre-determined date; our driver will bring new containers into your facility, locate the contact person at your office and service the filled containers. Next the filled containers are loaded onto our secured vehicle; the vehicle is tracked by a live GPS system so we know where the truck and material are at all times. The driver arrives back at the R3 shredding location and unloads the truck with additional R3 employees. The next step is shredding, once the material is shredded a certificate of destruction is emailed to the customer confirming the job is completed. Your documents are comingled with other customers to ensure greater security before the bailing process.
R3 is the business services division of New Horizons Supported Services a 501(c) 3 charitable organization registered in the state of Maryland.
