Retention Schedule and Records Destruction (Life Cycle Management)

Martin’s Data Management offers a full range of confidential records destruction which includes, paper records, electronic media, (i.e. optical media, magnetic media), non-paper records (i.e. mylar), and corporate seals. Predominately, all materials are taken off-site and brought to our bonded facility where they are destroyed and mixed with like materials from the current batch. This form of off-site destruction provide a highly secure destruction environment and reduces carbon emissions by spending as little time as possible operating equipment or vehicles at client sites. Martin’s then recycles all possible materials at approved facilities, and provides a certificate of destruction upon completion.

For records, (active and archived), managed by Martin’s, the retention period is tracked from the information as detailed above, and upon the end of specific record’s retention period, notification is sent to the client. The client then provides authorization to proceed with secure, confidential destruction of the record.
