Why Erie
Erie's insurance headquarters and health system generate regulated media year-round, and rail manufacturing adds engineering data most vendors overlook.
Because Erie 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.

Three services, one visit
Hard drive shredding in Erie
Hard drive shredding in Erie serves Erie Insurance's headquarters, UPMC Hamot, and Wabtec's rail engineering groups, three organizations with three different regulators and one need: drives destroyed where staff can watch. Erie is on our route to Buffalo, so scheduling is easy.
Secure IT recycling in Erie
Secure IT recycling in Erie recovers value from rail and industrial hardware and hospital fleets: storage destroyed first, chassis and peripherals sorted for reuse, boards smelted domestically. The universities cycle out student and lab machines each summer.
IT asset disposition in Erie
IT asset disposition in Erie is insurance-office refreshes, hospital cycles, and manufacturing upgrades. We inventory by serial, destroy on-site, and return documentation that satisfies GLBA, HIPAA, or NIST as applicable. For a handful of drives, Shred by Mail is often the better fit.
What happens on the day
The truck arrives
We park at your dock or lot. Your staff bring the media out, or we pull it from racks and closets with you.
Everything is destroyed while you watch
Hard drives are shredded. Solid-state media is reduced to 2 mm particles. Tapes, phones, and optical media go in the same day. Serial numbers can be recorded first.
You keep the certificate
A Certificate of Destruction listing what was destroyed, by which method, and when, plus recycling documentation from our R2-certified partners.
The rules in Pennsylvania
Breach of Personal Information Notification Act
Pennsylvania's breach notification law, updated in 2023, broadened what counts as personal information and tightened notice timelines. A drive that leaves your building intact is a breach waiting to be discovered.
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 Erie
How does an Erie run get scheduled?
Erie is about two and a half hours from Mansfield and usually pairs with Buffalo or Youngstown. We schedule it with a day or two of notice and can often be there next day.
How soon can you be in Erie?
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 Erie 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 Erie?
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 Erie?
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.
