If you handle documents that contain sensitive information, you need Shredsec’s confidential shredding services to ensure your material is completely destroyed and cannot be retrieved. From bank account details on payroll records to job references, customer records and marketing plans, almost every organisation possesses data that needs to be securely destroyed.
Irrespective of your organisation’s size or trading status (eg, business, charity, public sector, leisure attraction, etc.,) you have a responsibility to ensure your data is handled in the most secure manner.
How Shredsec’s Confidential Shredding Services Can Help
Under the Data Protection Act, you have a legal responsibility to safeguard any data you possess that can be regarded as private or could be used to compromise individuals or organisations. The Act covers all data, regardless of how it is stored. It also covers current and aged data.
If you do not comply with the Act, you could be liable to pay compensation to individuals or organisations who suffer loss, damage or distress because of your failure to safeguard their data. In the most serious cases the Information Commissioner’s Office can issue fines of up to £500,000.
Shredsec’s confidential shredding services can help your organisation comply with the Data Protection Act. We destroy data using high specification machinery that completely obliterates your paperwork. You will enjoy an easy solution to the disposal of your confidential waste and you can be assured of the complete peace of mind provided by our service.
Options For Your Confidential Shredding Services
Shredsec offers a variety of confidential shredding services designed to meet your organisations’ needs:
On-site Shredding
Shredsec’s on-site shredding involves using one of our specialist mobile shredding trucks to shred your confidential material at your premises. You are able to see the destruction of your documents in our mobile shredding truck before we remove the material from your site.
Off-site Shredding
Shredsec’s off-site shredding involves the collection of your paperwork from your premises and the transportation to our secure facility for shredding. Shredding is carried out on the same day as collection and you receive a Certificate of Destruction to confirm your documents have been correctly shredded.
This service is the least expensive and is the most popular with our customers.
Shredding Service Savings
Savings on the provision of shredding services can be made by taking out a contract for regular shredding. Contracts run for a minimum of one year and involve regular collections that might take place every day/week/month/quarter. Once a contract is in place, you can benefit from extra savings on your paper shredding.
How Shredsec Calculates The Price for Shredding Services
The price for shredding is calculated on the weight (in kilograms) of your paper. However, it is difficult for customers to accurately weigh all their material and so we can provide an estimation of the price you will pay if you can tell us the number of:
- Black bin liners
- Archive boxes
- Waste paper sacks
- Bin containers (typically used for domestic rubbish)
