January 16, 2007

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — RealTime Shredding Inc. announced it has added wireless remote monitoring to its flagship offering, the Self-Service Shredder.

The new Enterprise Model, designed for business centers and corporations with multiple locations, allows a company to monitor and manage the Self-Service Shredder kiosks remotely. With a wireless Internet connection, purchasers or lessors of The Self-Service Shredder can monitor use, obtain reports, and change software functions for each kiosk.

With a network of self-service shredding kiosks, managers can aggregate information and easily determine changes to make each location as productive as possible, said Amanda Verrie, president of RealTime Shredding. "Wireless capability also will be most helpful for those who do dynamic route planning management," she said.

Realime Shredding also recently incorporated anti-jam software into the Self-Service Shredder.

The Self-Service Shredder cross-cut shreds paper, cardboard, credit cards, paper clips, staples, CDs, DVDs, and floppy disks. The industrial-strength shredder, featuring multiple control points for maximum safety, can shred up to 200 sheets of paper a minute. Depending on the model purchased, the Self-Service Shredder will accept access codes and/or cash. Each customer can program the kiosk for the time/cost package they want to offer.
