How Iron Mountain Clean Start can support your workplace transformation goals
Figuring out where to start your workplace transformation project can be challenging, but you don’t have to do it alone. Our Clean Start® experts can help you maximise space and transform traditional offices into a digital workplace with minimal disruptions.
Whether you are relocating, reconfiguring or closing an office, every document, equipment and technology needs to be managed carefully and securely whether it is being stored, digitised, destroyed or donated. With this in mind, your dedicated Iron Mountain team will conduct an assessment and provide recommendations on how to best proceed to achieve your workplace transformation goals, starting with the consolidation of paper records, filing cabinets, servers, PCs, IT assets, office equipment, cabinets and artwork. Paper, eWaste, data and non-data bearing devices are carefully destroyed on-site or off-site with a proper chain of custody that is recorded. Assets can also be securely transported and stored in our facilities temporarily or permanently, with on-demand access to information digitally whenever you need it.

Frequently asked questions
Whether you’re rethinking or closing office space, navigating mergers and acquisition (M&A) activity, need to become more organised, or want to implement standard processes for managing information and data during real estate changes, we’re here to help.
What are the risks of workplace transformation?
Years of normal operations and employee turnover can leave the workplace cluttered and disorganised. Confidential information and assets located in filing cabinets, storage closets, and at employee workstations not only creates risk but can also waste valuable space.
While traditional moving companies and real estate service companies can support office closure projects, most don’t have the expertise, trained and vetted employees, or secure chain of custody to correctly handle and manage your organisation’s most valuable assets as you make changes to your real estate.
How can workplace transformation support my organisation’s shift to hybrid work practices?
As more organisations allow their workforce the flexibility to combine remote and office work, it is important to ensure a seamless transition to this new way of working and build a digital workplace.
While working virtually, employees will expect easy and quick access to both digital and physical information, in addition to tools that facilitate seamless collaboration.
Wherever or however they work, it is important that organisations stay in tune with employees’ preferences and industry best practices as they transform their workplace.
How does Clean Start ensure data security?
At Iron Mountain, data security and confidentiality is our top priority. Our dedicated vehicles securely transports your documents with patented security, tracking, and auditable chain of custody. Physical documents are carefully handled by our trained professionals. Upon document digitisation, all electronic information is encrypted at rest and during transmission across a secure network with access restricted by encryption keys.
