How offsite document storage works

Storing your items doesn't have to be a complicated process.

When you choose to store your documents with Iron Mountain, our end-to-end confidential records storage solutions mean you’ll have one trusted partner for all your archive needs. Iron Mountain can handle everything from transportation, to document archiving and indexing.

Here's an example of what a typical document storage process looks like:

  • You pack your archive boxes OR we can pack them for you.
  • Your cartons are picked up and stored in a secure Iron Mountain storage facility.
  • Schedule a fast retrieval of your cartons online.
  • Your selected cartons are delivered back to you.

Clear up your workspace

One of the biggest challenges to spring your documents on site is spatial inconvenience. If you have a large amount of physical papers with important information on them, your business usually has to dedicate a large amount of space in your building just for storage space. That room could be better used for other functions.

That room could be better used for other functions. The physicality of your documents also comes with potential hazards. Flooding, fires, and other sudden calamities can quickly wipe out physical information that has been improperly stored. 

Your important documents will stay safe with offsite storage.

Physical document storage systems   

The two most popular ways of storing information are either physical or via a cloud storage system. Ideally, these physical and online document storage systems work best in tandem with one another.

Specialised storage 

Not all records management companies can meet specialised storage needs, such as preserving larger volumes of records or materials that require special environmental controls. Iron Mountain can design and create a customised vault to meet your specifications.

Features include:

  • Climate-controlled storage for materials that require definitive environmental and relative humidity specifications. Separate vault storage for film, magnetic and mixed media to prevent cross contamination.
  • Iron Mountain offers a comprehensive records management solution (RMS) that safeguards your physical and digital data while offering you the best of both worlds. By selecting a trusted third party provider to handle your mission-critical records and information, you’ll remove the burdens associated with sourcing the right data from staff. You’ll also enjoy the accessibility and security a cloud-based and physically-archived solution provides.

Document retrieval

Document retrieval can be a simple process. Whenever you need to have your document in-hand, order online through Iron Mountain Records Management web portal. We can schedule a delivery from our offsite document storage facility straight to your location.

What is a records management system?

A records management system (RMS) is the general process in which a company’s records are handled throughout its lifecycle.

When a document with important information gets created, it’s imperative that this data is managed in the correct way to prevent information leaks or other loss of information. A proper document management system can easily solve potential security issues that may arise from the storage of an important record.

At Iron Mountain, your valuable documents are sent to and kept safe in our secure storage facilities. Our world-class archiving system can assure you that your organisation’s data will be closely guarded and kept safe. We work closely with you to minimise costs, improve access to business information and protect important documents, records and files.
