Shredsec provides shredding services for homes and businesses throughout Cambridge and Cambridgeshire. From our base in Bury St Edmunds, we offer same day collections across the Cambridge area.
Our shredders operate at level 3 of DIN 32757, the European standard for paper shredder security. This produces material similar to confetti, making reconstruction impossible. Learn more about shredder security levels.
