This blog is being written to give you a peak behind the thick, secure, and highly reinforced curtain of confidential document shredding, document management, and recycling. I will be answering the questions that come up every day in the shredding industry, along with answering the questions most people do not know to ask.
Now before you start believing everything I say (somebody working so closely with your personal information SHOULD have to earn your trust) I would like to introduce the company that I am a part of, Shredding and Storage Unlimited, LLC and myself.
Shredding and Storage Unlimited, LLC is a company almost 30 years in the making. Storage Unlimited, LLC was started by my grandparents (Diane and Gary) with one of the first self-storage units in the state of Indiana. They dabbled in other things, such as digital storage and renting computer processing power about 20 years before everybody started Googling. To make a long story short, they came up with some good ideas along the way. One of those good ideas was confidential document storage (or they may have just had a thing for storage, see the trend) and Storage Unlimited Document Storage, LLC was started in 1997 by my parents, Dan and Chrisy. Storage Unlimited has gone through some changes in the last 17 years, box number 1 was shredded several years ago, more facilities opened, the main office is in a more accessible location, document shredding has become a more prominent service, and the company has gone through several name changes. Dan and Chrisy though are still at the helm treating every customer as if they are the very first, the climate controlled self-storage warehouses are still managed day in and day out by Diane, and prices on almost all of the products and services offered by Shredding and Storage Unlimited, LLC have remained the same (maybe that’s why we have haven’t found any outside stock holders, hmmm…).
I’m Josh and you could call me one of the constant’s to Shredding and Storage Unlimited, LLC. I spent time in the office everyday as a 9 year old when the first document storage facility was being filled. I don’t remember that far back, but I probably helped shelve the first set of boxes that came in for storage and I know I helped with shredding when those boxes reached the end of their retention period several years later. To emphasize, all I remember is handling documents confidentially. You could also call me one of the changes to the company through the years. I left Bloomington, Indiana to get a business degree in operations and supply chain management, which was quickly followed by an MBA from University of Indianapolis. I went on to work for a couple small businesses, left those to climb the corporate ladder at a much larger business, and then I came back to Bloomington to become a part of what Shredding and Storage Unlimited, LLC had become.
