Microfilm and fiche
Roll film, jackets, and fiche from records rooms, libraries, and imaging vendors that are past retention and must be unreadable.
Frederick, Maryland
Haven Secure Destruction destroys paper records and analog film media so they cannot be read again. Our specialty is microfilm, microfiche, and aperture cards — plus CDs, DVDs, USB drives, and paper that is recycled after destruction.

Film and fiche specialists
Paper recycled after shredding
No hard drives or phones
Our niche
Libraries, courts, hospitals, and agencies still hold decades of microfilm, microfiche, and aperture cards. Those formats need a different process than a standard paper route. That is the work Haven Secure Destruction is built for — alongside everyday document destruction with full recycling.
Roll film, jackets, and fiche from records rooms, libraries, and imaging vendors that are past retention and must be unreadable.
Engineering and facilities card files that still hold drawings on film chips. Destroyed so the image cannot be recovered.
Office and household paper is destroyed, then sent into a full recycling stream so the fiber is reused instead of landfilled.
Clear boundaries
We do not destroy computers, hard drives, SSDs, or phones. We do destroy the analog and optical media that those shops often refuse.

Who we serve
Courts, hospitals, universities, government agencies, engineering firms, and businesses clearing paper plus leftover film from conversion projects. Households with boxes of statements are welcome too.
A digitization job finishes. The source microfilm or fiche cannot stay on the shelf. Paper boxes from the same vault go with it. We destroy the film formats, shred and recycle the paper, and issue a Certificate of Destruction for the file.
