Software for the shred companies everyone else forgot.
Small, independent shredding companies keep a lot of America's private records safe. Most of them still run on whiteboards, paper tickets and software that feels decades old. We think they deserve better.
Why we exist
Proof is the product. The tools should keep up.
Every service a shred company does ends with a promise: your documents were destroyed, and here's the proof. Yet the work behind that promise is often stitched together by hand: schedules on a whiteboard, certificates copied from a Word template, tickets re-typed into invoices at night.
The software that does exist is often built for medical waste or generic field service, sold through long demos, or showing its age. Trakro is different: built only for document shredding, fast to set up yourself, and fairly priced for companies with one to three trucks.
How we design
Six principles behind every screen.
Speak shredding
Console, bin, purge, on-site, off-site, certificate. Never “generator” or “work item.”
Today first
The office opens to today's routes and problems. The driver opens to the next stop.
Phone-ring speed
Any common change, like a skip or a move, is a search and a few clicks away.
Show the proof
Every job shows its record at a glance: times, photos, signature and certificate.
Forgiving
Confirmations show consequences before you commit, and nothing a driver does is ever lost.
Sunlight and gloves
Driver screens use big type, high contrast and big buttons, with almost no typing.
Who we build for
- Independent, owner-run shredding companies
- 1 to 3 trucks, often with the owner driving a route

- Teams with little time for training or setup
What we won't do
- Bolt on medical waste or records storage
- Chase national chains at your expense
- Lock you into long contracts
