The History of GRM

GRM was founded in New York City in 1987 to provide a better, hands-on alternative for records storage than what was being offered by larger, more established vendors. Early on, this positioning resonated throughout the business community. In search of more attentive service and a commitment to cutting edge technology, prominent law and accounting firms, financial institutions, entertainment and insurance companies as well as non-profit organizations soon flocked to GRM.

The company’s reputation solidified in the 1990’s. The client roster grew steadily, placing a demand on more storage space, additional locations, and an extension of the product line. By the end of the decade, GRM was operating three records centers in the New York Metropolitan Area totaling nearly 1.5 million square feet. As the 21st Century came into view, GRM embarked on a national expansion program. Sparked by client demand, the company established records centers in Los Angeles and Miami. Soon after, operations began in Washington, D.C. In 2001, the roll out continued with the opening of the Chicago facility, followed a year later by Atlanta and Philadelphia. And in early 2003, GRM staked a presence in Northern California with the opening of the Alameda and Fremont centers.

Commensurate with its physical growth was the lengthening of the company’s product line. GRM now offers a complete menu of integrated information management services including records storage, imaging, certified shredding services, data and video and film storage, electronic vaulting and technology escrow. Plus, GRM clients choose from a variety of customized, corrugated storage containers and durable, customized transfer cases to protect and preserve their important documents and business data.

Today, GRM employees coast-to-coast are dedicated to maintaining the standards established at our inception – providing world-class service and the best value for the information storage dollar.
