   2. Recurring Plans. Your plan shall continue and automatically renew for the same duration (for example, monthly plans automatically renew monthly and annual plans automatically renew annually) until you cancel (see “Cancellation” and “Trial Period” below). You must provide notice of cancellation before your plan renews to avoid automatic renewal.

You shall permit us to retrieve all shred bins and other of our property kept at your location and, if we cannot retrieve such items, you will be charged to replace the same.
      1. Account Closure. Iron Mountain charges fees to close your account and terminate the services, which are the charges incurred (in addition to your plan price) to return your Deposits to you and to pick up any shred bins from your location. Account closure fees apply and will be assessed to close your account and terminate your services for any reason, except for cancellation during the Trial Period. 
      2. Early Termination Fee. If you have more than one month remaining in your plan term you may elect to cancel your plan and terminate your services prior to your plan renewal date by paying an early termination fee equal to your monthly plan price multiplied by the number of months remaining in the then-current term (“Early Termination Fee”). The Early Termination Fee is in addition to the applicable account closure fees. 
4. Charges. Rates, charges, and definitions of Iron Mountain’s offered service plans, along with available add-ons or incremental services, are specified on the Site. Rates and charges for services may be changed at any time by Iron Mountain upon written notice to you, provided that recurring plan rates will remain the same for your stated plan term, with changes going into effect upon renewal.

Published prices are exclusive of taxes and required fees, which will be charged as applicable. 
5. Promotional Offers. We may make certain promotional offers available from time to time, which may be subject to differing conditions or limitations which shall be disclosed at the time of registration or purchase.

6. Payment Terms. You are required to enroll in electronic auto-pay, and provide Iron Mountain with current, complete, accurate, and authorized payment method information (e.g. ACH or credit card information).

Payment will be due and charged on the date of your enrollment, and thereafter monthly on each anniversary (unless you registered on a day not contained in a given month, in which case you will be charged on the closest available date) for that month’s service plan and will continue until you cancel. Iron Mountain’s fees are fully earned upon payment and there are no refunds or credits for canceled, unused, or partially used services, except as otherwise set forth herein.
