Why Battle Creek
The Hart-Dole-Inouye Federal Center in downtown Battle Creek is headquarters for DLA Disposition Services, the agency that disposes of the military’s surplus property, along with other DLA and DoD offices. The 110th Wing is at the airport and Fort Custer’s training center is next door. A city whose main federal tenant is the government’s own disposal arm understands documented destruction.
Because Battle Creek is one of our next-day metros, we can usually be on-site the day after you call, and there is no minimum: a single server is a job. Every on-site job is quoted individually, so tell us what you have and we will send a custom quote.

Federal standards we destroy to
NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 2 for every job. NSA/CSS 9-12 for classified and national security media, and DoDM 5205.07 for Special Access Program material. HIPAA, CJIS, GLBA, FACTA, CMMC, IRS 1075, and FERPA depending on who you are. See how we match method to standard.
Questions from Battle Creek
Do you serve DLA contractors at the Federal Center?
Yes. Federal contractor media is destroyed to NIST 800-88 Rev. 2 with the documentation DLA's security office expects, and to NSA/CSS 9-12 where a program requires it.
How soon can you be in Battle Creek?
Usually the next business day. Same-day is sometimes possible if the truck is already routed your way.
Is there a minimum?
No. Small jobs in Battle Creek are easy to add to a route. For a handful of drives, Shred by Mail may be cheaper.
What does it cost?
Every on-site job is quoted individually based on item count, media types, the standard you need, and travel. Here is what moves the number, or tell us what you have and we will send a custom quote.
Do you offer free pickup or free recycling in Battle Creek?
No. Free recycling makes its money by reselling your hardware whole, online or overseas, which is exactly how retired drives end up in a breach. Our fee pays technicians to disassemble your equipment, inspect every part that could hold data, and destroy those parts on your site with a certificate. If nothing sensitive was ever on the equipment, free may be fine. If your data is regulated or classified, it is not. Why free is not free.
Do you handle classified media in Battle Creek?
Yes. We are one of very few providers able to meet NSA/CSS 9-12 and DoDM 5205.07 destruction requirements on-site, with NSA-listed equipment and your cleared personnel supervising, under your security officer’s conditions.
Can our staff watch?
Yes, and we encourage it. Witnessed destruction is the point of bringing the truck to you.
What about paper records?
We do not shred paper. We concentrate on electronic media, and we can point you to a paper-shredding partner we trust.
