Our History

Piranha Paper Shredding is a locally owned and operated company. We believe in giving our customers nothing but the best in service and support.
Managing sensitive information in a safe and secure environment is Piranha’s sole purpose. As a long-standing member of the community, you can trust that Piranha is here to stay.
In 2003, Piranha Paper Shredding was created as a division of Allied Resource Recovery, Inc. (ARR) and we began specializing in document destruction. ARR is a recycling company that dates back to 1938. Since its start, ARR is and has always been owned by the Rehberg family. In 2007, Piranha was split off to be an independent company to allow for faster growth. In 2010, Piranha opened its Fox Valley plant in Neenah, Wisconsin and started offering Records Management Services as well as document destruction. In 2013 Piranha moved into its new 40,000 square foot plant in New Berlin Wisconsin.Piranha continues to grow and expand into other areas. We are now a total information management and destruction company. As of April 2016 our service fleet surpassed 15 units, with plans to add more soon.
