Recycling:
Recycling is not an adequate alternative for information destruction. Pick-up and destroy, refuse and recycling services cannot guarantee confidentiality.
To extract the scrap value from office paper, recycling companies use unscreened minimum wage workers to extensively sort the material under unsecured conditions.
There is no fiduciary responsibility inherent in the recycling scenario. If something of a private nature surfaced, the selection of this unsecured process could be interpreted as negligent. Recycling as a means of information disposal is not worth the risk of minimizing the need of security over a free or low price method that has only a non-responsible party's interest in mind.
