Access Information Management Announces the Acquisition of Santa Barbara File Storage and Bekins of Santa Barbara

LIVERMORE, CA — December 23, 2011 - Access Information Management, leading provider of records management storage and destruction services for hardcopy and electronic records, announced the acquisition of the assets of Santa Barbara File Storage and the hardcopy record inventory from Bekins of Santa Barbara. These acquisitions make Access the only full-service records and information management (RIM)company based in Santa Barbara County.

Committed to the Santa Barbara community, Access will continue to service existing clients locally, opening a new Santa Barbara-based, full-service record center location on January 2, 2012. Under the daily direction of General Manager, Robert Cummings, this new location in Santa Barbara will allow Access to offer secure, end-to-end RIM services to new and existing clients, including hardcopy storage and management, secure destruction services, vital records protection, document imaging and digital storage.

“We are proud to announce the acquisition of two Santa Barbara-based records storage companies and the opening of a new record center facility; expanding our California presence and furthering our commitment in the region,” said Rob Alston, Access’ Chief Executive Officer. “While we currently serve many businesses in Santa Barbara county, this new facility will provide us a significant competitive advantage in the market as the only RIM company with a facility actually located within Santa Barbara county - less than one mile from Main Street.”

Access is one of the fastest growing organizations in the RIM industry and was named to the Inc. 5000 list of America’s fastest-growing private companies for three consecutive years, from 2009 through 2011. Access’ continued growth is a result of an ongoing commitment to customer service, cost effective RIM program offerings and the strategic incorporation of new facilities across the United States to meet growing client needs.
