Why Shred?

The truth of the matter is that everybody should shred certain papers / documentation whether you’re a household or a business. The only difference is that for businesses it is compulsory to routinely destroy records of sensitive information.

For Businesses

  • Compliance – Did you know that a business who doesn’t routinely destroy records is breaking the law due to the Data Protection Act and European and Government regulations? It is imperative every business/organisation has a secure shredding system in place as customers & employees have the legal right to have their details protected with the proper safeguards in place.
  • GDPR – Our solutions can help your organisation to remain compliant with the GDPR, Europe’s data privacy and security law, which came into effect on May 25, 2018, providing many new legal requirements for how organisations collect and store the sensitive data of people in the EU.
  • Accountability – With a certificate of destruction issued in compliance with the Data Protection Act, your organisation can prove its accountability towards handling sensitive data.
  • Reputation – It can take years to build a reputation but mere seconds to destroy one, the last thing you want is to fall short by failing to handle your customers records properly.
  • Productivity – When it comes to destroying records and handling sensitive data, we know what we’re doing. Increase your staff’s productivity by letting them concentrate on what they are good at!
  • To help the planet – You can recycle your confidential documents in an effective way to reduce your carbon footprint and meet government legislation on safeguarding the environment.

For Households

  • Security – Don’t let your personal details and sensitive data fall into the wrong hands. Identity theft fraud and misuse of data is a real problem in the UK and can end up taking a real financial toll.

It was reassuring to know that years of bank statements and personal information was being disposed of in the safest way possible. Will definitely use again and recommend to others.
