Shredsec’s regular shredding service provides scheduled collections of your confidential waste on a daily, weekly, fortnightly or monthly basis. We provide Certificates of Destruction for your compliance records.
Our flexible contracts have no long-term tie-ins.
How Regular Shredding Works
1. We Assess Your Needs Tell us about your organisation – how much confidential waste you generate, and how many staff. We’ll recommend the right collection frequency.
2. Scheduled Collections Our operatives arrive at your agreed time and transport your material to our secure shredding facility.
3. Certificate of Destruction After each collection, you receive a Certificate of Destruction confirming compliant disposal under the Data Protection Act and UK GDPR.
Collection Frequencies
Choose the schedule that matches your confidential waste output:
| Frequency | Best For | Typical Clients |
|---|---|---|
| Daily | High-volume environments | Call centres, large offices, financial services |
| Weekly | Regular steady output | Medium businesses, professional services |
| Fortnightly | Moderate volumes | Small-medium businesses, branch offices |
| Monthly | Lower volumes | Small businesses, home offices |
| Quarterly | Minimal waste | Very small offices, periodic clear-outs |
Not sure which frequency you need? Start with monthly collections and we’ll adjust based on how quickly your bins fill up.

✓ Letters and correspondence ✓ Reports and printouts ✓ Invoices and statements ✓ Personnel files ✓ Client records ✓ Contracts and agreements ✓ Post-it notes and notebooks ✓ Lever arch files (whole) ✓ Ring binders (whole) ✓ Documents with staples, clips, treasury tags ✓ Window envelopes ✓ Carbon paper
