On-site shredding services offer you a secure and convenient shredding solution, at your location.
When you choose our mobile shredding service, you’ll get one of our dedicated and GPS tracked shredding vans out to your location, to dispose of your documents securely. Many businesses opt for on-site shredding because it reassures the security of your confidential waste.
With this service, we’ll bring our mobile shredding unit to your site or office where you can witness your documents being destroyed first hand. We can make regular, scheduled visits, or you can book one-off collections as and when needed. It’s completely secure and you’ll be emailed a certificate of destruction immediately.
How our on-site shredding service works
Collection
We arrange an ad-hoc collection or a schedule for regular collections as part of our commercial shredding services. Our fully trained operatives confidentially transfer the waste to our high-security MOD-approved shredding vehicles, then weigh it.
Shredding
If you opt for on-site shredding, the destruction process is witnessed by an appropriate person from your company and then shredded by our specially trained operatives. .
Compliance
We issue a Certificate of Destruction showing the weight and details of the collection. You will also be provided with a full audit trail as standard with mobile shredding services, allowing you to see the location of your confidential waste at any point in time.
Recycling
The shredded waste is then compacted into the rear compartment of the vehicle, locked and transported to our shredding depot in Glasgow or Nottingham, where it will be baled and collected for recycling.
All carried out as per BS EN 15713 or equivalent.
