CRM History

Founded by Denise Chadima in 1999, we were a true “bootstrap” startup. Self funded, and renting a small 3500 sf warehouse, our first customer was moved out of a self storage facility on New Years Eve of that year.
 

2000 was a growth year and when a large customer needed to store 6000 boxes, we rented the warehouse next door. More growth meant more space, so by the time we had rented our fourth warehouse in the complex, we realized space would continue to be a problem, so we began a search for a facility where we could consolidate, allow future growth and offer great security.

Meanwhile, we started Texas State Shredding in 2003 (www.TXShred.com) for the secure destruction of our customer’s documents. We found the perfect facility that fall and through the use of commercial and SBA loans, closed the transaction in January of 2004. We now own and occupy a 75,000 square foot, full concrete (even the roof!), rock-solid record center.

Renovation to upgrade security, parking, offices and lighting followed, as did the transfer of our entire inventory, a feat we hope to never suffer through again. Retrieving a box from a barcoded rack is easy; retrieving that box located on a pallet with 40 other boxes being transported to its new home was not.

Aided by our strong network of satisfied customers who continue to recommend others, we have continued to grow in inventory and employees. We achieved NAID AAA Certification for our Texas State Shredding division in April 2008, and continue to innovate in the document destruction industry. Our fastest growing division, Maxxafe System has been rolled out nationally, providing cost-effective document destruction service to every zip code in the US.
