Secure chain of custody

A signed record from pickup to handoff.

Hard drives and retired IT equipment on the way to a certified destruction partner you name, plus bank, title-company and real-estate closing packets — carried with a signature, a photo and a timestamp at every handoff.

What we handle

This service is for work that has to remain sealed and accounted for from pickup to the last handoff: retired hard drives and IT equipment going to a destruction partner you designate, and bank, title-company or real-estate closing packets moving between offices, settlement rooms and firms.

We transport IT assets to your certified destruction partner. We do not operate a destruction facility and do not claim a destruction certification of our own. Serial numbers can be recorded at pickup and at drop when you ask us to. Document packets travel sealed, with a signature at every handoff.

How a run is documented

We confirm the window, the custody instructions and the handling in a written quote before the run starts. The driver is an employee, trained on our procedures, and drives a company electric van — not a personal car on a gig app.

Proof of delivery is a signature, a photo and a timestamp at every stop. If your process calls for a particular seal, manifest or chain-of-custody form, we will build the run around that paperwork. Live tracking and a client portal are on the roadmap and are not available yet.

Typical requests

  • A sealed shipment of retired hard drives or IT assets, delivered to the certified destruction partner you name.
  • A real-estate closing packet carried between a title company, a lender and a settlement office.
  • A bank or legal document run that needs a signed record at pickup and drop.
  • A standing route of document or asset transfers between a short list of offices.

In this region

Title companies, banks, law firms and data-center operators across DC, Northern Virginia and close-in Maryland already work on tight closing and decommissioning calendars. A useful courier here is one that will keep the package sealed, follow your custody instructions, and return a record you can file with the closing or the destruction job.

We do not list banks, title companies or destruction firms as clients or partners on this page. Tell us the origin, the destination and the paperwork you need, and we will design the run around them.

Planned, not yet in place. Live tracking and a client portal are on the roadmap. Commercial auto, cargo and general liability coverage are planned before the first run, with certificates available on request. Online booking is on the roadmap. Today you can request a written quote through the form.
