Why Piketon and Portsmouth
The Department of Energy’s Portsmouth site in Piketon is being decommissioned after decades of uranium enrichment, while Centrus runs the American Centrifuge plant next door. DOE sites sanitize and destroy media under their own orders, and the decontamination and decommissioning workforce retires a lot of it. We also cover Portsmouth, the hospital, and Scioto and Pike County government.
Because Piketon and Portsmouth 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.

The rules in Ohio
Ohio Data Protection Act and HB 96
Ohio's Data Protection Act gives businesses a legal safe harbor when they follow a recognized cybersecurity framework such as NIST — and documented media sanitization is part of any of them. Ohio HB 96 adds cybersecurity program requirements for counties, cities, townships, school districts, libraries, and other political subdivisions.
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 Piketon and Portsmouth
Can you destroy media under DOE orders at the Portsmouth site?
Yes. We destroy to NIST 800-88 Rev. 2 and NSA/CSS 9-12 as your contractor security office directs, and the certificate names the equipment and each serial number for the site's records.
How soon can you be in Piketon and Portsmouth?
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 Piketon and Portsmouth 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 Piketon and Portsmouth?
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 Piketon and Portsmouth?
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.
