Education records often include Social Security numbers, medical information, addresses, financial details, and other personally identifiable information. Disposing of these materials in standard trash or recycling creates serious security risks.
Documents and devices can be recovered and used for fraud or identity theft. Secure destruction helps eliminate this risk by ensuring sensitive information is permanently destroyed.
FERPA & Compliance Requirements
Schools must comply with federal regulations such as FERPA, and in some cases HIPAA, when handling and disposing of student and staff information. Failure to properly protect this data can result in legal consequences, fines, and loss of trust.
Rover helps educational institutions implement secure destruction programs that support compliance and audit readiness. We provide Certificates of Destruction and documentation for your records.
Paper, Hard Drive & Digital Data Destruction
With computers, laptops, tablets, and other electronic devices now essential to education, schools of all sizes manage both physical and electronic records. Protecting this information requires secure destruction of both paper documents and electronic media. Old computers, hard drives, USB devices, and backup systems may still contain sensitive data even after they are no longer in use.
Rover provides secure data destruction services for schools, colleges, universities, and other educational institutions, including the secure destruction of paper documents, hard drives, and digital media containing sensitive student, employee, and administrative information.
