We rent scanners daily to various organizations throughout the country and we’re happy to share our experience to provide you the right solution. Here are some simple guidelines to get you started in choosing the right rental scanner. Please note that you cannot determine the correct scanner to rent by just answering one question. There’s more to it and oftentimes we find customers wanting to rent a high-speed scanner because they think faster is better but they didn’t take into account that all of their documents are stapled or bound.

They ended up spending money on a scanner that they never could fully take advantage of.

  • What is the condition of the documents?
    You’ll want to get a good idea of what you’ll need to do in order to prep the documents for scanning. Are they stapled, in document jackets, paper clipped? This will tell you how much time you’ll need to spend on prepping the documents for scanning.
  • How many people will work on the scanning project?

Low volume scanners are great for small projects of about a case or two paper with a couple weeks to complete the job with one person.

Mid-volume scanners are recommended for projects where you have a three to five banker boxes or a filing cabinet and a month to complete the job with one person.

High-volume scanners are when you’re talking about two or more filing cabinets, a few weeks to complete the job and a team of two people.

While these are very general guidelines, there are so many variables and what we’ve found is each customer is different which is why we recommend finding answers to the above questions and then giving us a call.
