Secure Document Storage

How to Store Paper Documents Securely

Paper documents should be stored in boxes or containers with exterior labels identifying the contents of each box. The boxes should be proper storage boxes, made for this purpose. You should also place the documents in lever arch files before placing them in storage boxes. Elephant Box Shop offers a variety of box sizes for safe file storage.

Choosing The Right Place For Secure Document Storage

The location for paper document storage is vital and should meet several requirements. Partnering with a professional storage facility company can not only provide the right place, but also provide packing and storage supplies, including protection protocols in place, such as smoke & heat detection, gated storage areas, and 24/7 monitoring.

Paper records should also be stored between 20°C and 24.4°C, in an environment with humidity up to 55 percent. Keeping storage boxes away from humidity is critical for preservation. Avoid areas like sheds and attics, due to the irregular temperature and humidity levels.
