Tax Season 2019: Know the Laws Know Your Opportunities

February 15, 2019 by Jeff McRitchie

There are two very important security regulations that require the proper disposal of sensitive and secure documents:

FACTA – As of June 1, 2005, the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of 2003 is now in effect. This new regulation is the largest step the Federal Government has taken to curb the increasingly widespread occurrences of identity theft and consumer fraud. This regulation makes it a requirement for all businesses, even if there is only one employee, to properly dispose of any information derived from consumer credit information before it is discarded. This would include invoices, credit and background checks, and any other sheet that contains consumer financial information.

HIPAA -In addition to consumer credit information, the health industry must also safeguard Protected Health Information (PHI) and ensure that patients health records are properly destroyed before discarded. The scope of these new regulations is enormous, and unfortunately, to reach compliance most consumers will migrate toward the smaller and more inexpensive shredders that their superstore has to offer. So, it’s important to try and raise awareness of FACTA/HIPAA in your community and steer them toward a reliable shredder that their company will grow in to.

A Few Reasons Why Documents Should Be Shred In-House:

Documents are irrecoverable– using one of our quiet office shredders, you can be assured that every document is shred into tiny irrecoverable pieces.
Stay in Compliance– If you are negligent on the disposal of your records, fines could cost you thousands of dollars. Shred your outdated sensitive information on the highest security levels that Dahle shredders provide.
Environmentally Friendly– save the cost of records management/storage by shredding outdated records with our Dahle CleanTec Shredders, that also insure the capture of fine dust particles using our CleanTec Air Filtration.
Documents are Shred immediately– In house shredding is a one-time cost. With mobile shredding, cost is never ending and in fact, increases each year as fuel surcharges rise. Plus, you know who is handling/shredding your sensitive documents when kept in house.

Dahle can support your efforts in selling the right shredder for the right application and what better time to start than in the middle of Tax Season, when many sensitive document copies are needed for filings and required to be destroyed once completed.

One final tip: P4 security level machines are typically adequate for tax season demands; always ask to make certain. As always, should you need additional information on a shredder or have any questions regarding any of the Dahle products, always feel free to contact us directly.

MyBinding.com Partners with Dahle to Release New Eco-Friendly Paper Shredders

April 5, 2012 by Jeff McRitchie

MyBinding.com introduces Dahle’s new line of environmentally friendly shredding machines.

HILLSBORO, OR, April 5, 2012 – MyBinding.com, a growing Inc. 5000 company, recently introduced a line of new Dahle eco-friendly paper shredding machines. These new paper shredders are some of the most energy efficient shredding devices on the market today.

Dahle’s SmartPower Energy Management System is what makes their new shredders so energy efficient. The SmartPower system is a multi-phase mechanism that does two things to conserve energy. First, the system registers when the machine has been inactive for ten minutes and decreases the power to go into a sleep mode. Second, the shredder completely powers down after an additional 20 minutes. While other paper shredders offer similar sleep modes, none completely power down after such a short time. The SmartPower System is perfect for companies looking for ways to reduce their electrical costs and conserve energy.

“From production to operation, Dahle has always taken environmental concerns very seriously,” said Scott Prokop, VP, Dahle North America, Inc, in a press release published on their website. “We are pleased to be able to offer such an environmentally friendly product.”

A variety of Dahle shredders are now featuring the SmartPower Energy Management System, including the CleanTEC series and others ranging from compact, personal devices up to heavy duty, multi-department machines. Security levels are available from two to six, accommodating a variety of needs. Dahle paper shredders are equipped with blades made from a single block of German steel and are aligned in an all-steel frame for a rugged, sturdy shredder. Dahle backs up their cutting shafts with a one year warranty on levels five and six and for life on the other models. These shredders also feature an ESP Protection System to prevent overfeeding and jams, rubber shock mounts for quiet operation, and a thermally-protected motor to avoid overheating.

“Dahle makes a great shredder and we’re really excited about adding their new machines to our site,” said Jeff McRitchie, Vice-President of Marketing for MyBinding.com. “They always deliver high quality products that we can be proud to offer to our customers.”

Dahle is a part of a German-born company that has grown into an international business.

Dahle is an international company that has been manufacturing high quality products since 1930. They began with pencil sharpeners, then moved on to produce scissors and shears quickly followed by guillotine and rotary paper trimmers. Although paper shredders were the last to join their product line-up, they continue the Dahle tradition of high quality, top-of-the-line performance.
