Our Story

Berkshire-born. Certified to the nation's strictest standard.

Dream Green Secure grew out of Dream Green Recycling, a family-run hauling and recycling crew in Adams, Massachusetts. We started in the Berkshires, picking up mattresses, TVs, and bulky electronics from households and businesses who didn't want their old stuff buried in a landfill on the other side of the state.

The data side of the business came from the same instinct: do the right thing with what you take away. Customers kept handing us laptops and hard drives, and “trust me, I'll wipe it” was never going to be good enough. So we trained, audited, and earned NAID AAA Certification from i‑SIGMA: the only certification in the information destruction industry with unannounced third-party audits.

Today our trucks still leave from a yard in Adams. The crew is the same crew. The standards are the strictest in the country, and we apply them the same way in a Berkshires basement as we do at a multi-site IT decommission anywhere in the U.S.

Why it matters

Why NAID AAA Certified Protects You.

Certified destruction is the difference between “we said we erased it” and a defensible audit trail your regulator, insurer, and general counsel can actually use.

A 2017 i‑SIGMA study found that 40% of secondhand devices still contained recoverable personal data. Certified destruction eliminates that risk for organizations everywhere.i‑SIGMA Research, 2017
01

Unannounced Third-Party Audits

Unlike self-certified providers, NAID AAA requires surprise inspections by independent auditors, ensuring we always meet the highest standards, not just on inspection day.

02

Certificate of Destruction

Every job produces a legally-recognized Certificate of Destruction. Your documented proof of compliance for audits, insurance, and regulatory requirements.

03

Chain of Custody

From the moment materials leave your hands to final destruction, every step is tracked and documented. Nothing is handled informally or left unaccounted for.

04

Background-Checked Staff

All employees are thoroughly screened before handling sensitive materials. Your confidential information is always in vetted, trustworthy hands.

05

Legal Protection

Using a NAID AAA Certified provider demonstrates due diligence, significantly reducing your legal exposure in the event of a breach or regulatory audit.

06

100% Recycled, Zero Waste

Every destroyed drive and device is responsibly recycled. Certified destruction and environmental stewardship go hand-in-hand with Dream Green.

NAID AAA Certified vs. Other Standards

Many providers self‑certify. Only NAID AAA verifies.

Many destruction providers self‑certify or claim compliance without independent verification. Only NAID AAA Certification requires surprise third‑party audits, forensic verification, and annual renewal.

Important: Choosing an uncertified provider leaves you legally exposed. A breach with an uncertified vendor means you cannot demonstrate due diligence.
