A Legacy Built on Hard Work
Back in 1907, my grandfather, James Greensides, began hauling baggage at the historic Rio Grande Train Station. With the dedicated help of my grandmother, Norma, that small operation blossomed into Sugar House Transfer—a trusted local and long-distance moving and storage service.
As the business grew, so did the family involvement. James and Norma’s two sons stepped in, keeping the momentum going. By the 1960s, my father, David, helped steer the company into a new era by adding records storage. In the 1980s, anticipating the growing need for data security, he introduced our very first paper shredder.
Evolving with the Times
Change is the only constant, and over the decades, our family business has continually adapted to meet the needs of the Salt Lake Valley.
Today, Sugar House Archives & Shred has stepped away from the moving industry, document shredding, and physical records storage. Instead, our focus has shifted entirely to the future of information management: document scanning.
Because the scanning technology and options we provide have become so diverse and advanced, we felt it was time for our branding to catch up. While we remain proudly rooted in Sugar House Archives & Shred, our scanning department now operates under a name that more accurately reflects what we do: Salt Lake City Document Scanning.
Looking to the Future
My brothers and I are proud to follow in our father’s and grandparents' footsteps, keeping the business family-owned and operated. As technology advances and people’s needs change, we plan to keep evolving just as we have for over a century.
What will never change, however, are our core values. We were taught the immense value of hard work and dedicated local customer service. Today, we are proud to be teaching those same values to our children, with the goal of carrying my grandparents' incredible legacy forward to the 4th generation and well beyond.
Thank you, Salt Lake Valley, for trusting us with your business for more than a century. We look forward to serving you in the digital age!
Sincerely,
Jason Greensides CEO, Salt Lake City Document Scanning
