For those who have never used a professional shredding service before, we understand there can be a lot of questions. How does it work? How do I find the best shredding services near me? (we can definitely help with that one if you’re in Yorkshire!)
So, we’ve compiled a list of the most common questions we get asked, to help give you a better understanding of our shredding and document disposal services, in case they could be of assistance to you. If you have your own questions not covered here, do get in touch – we’re always happy to help.
We cater for both the business and home shredding services. For homeowners, we can do one off jobs either on a collection basis or you can bring your shredding to us, with prices starting from just £15 plus VAT. We can deliver a bin or a sack to you, which you can fill as you go along, until you’re ready for it to be disposed of. A lot of people find it handy when they’re moving or to have an annual clear out.
Looking for home shredding services near me? We can help!
Using a home or office shredder can be a laborious and thankless task. We’ve all done it – spent hours feeding sheet after sheet in, only for it to jam or overheat. It’s not a great use of anyone’s time. Our shredding machines are on an industrial scale so get through mountains of paperwork in minutes. Not only that, they’re shredded much more thoroughly, to British Standards, so you can be confident your confidential waste poses no future risk. Which is very important when it comes to GDPR and identity theft!
We do regular contracts for businesses, but we also do one off jobs for both businesses and homeowners. We’ll either deliver a bin which we collect from you when its full, or you can use our handy sacks, fill them yourself, and bring them to one of our centres in Leeds, York, Wakefield, Harrogate or Huddersfield.
Absolutely! We can install a lockable bin in your office and you can call us when it’s full or we can arrange weekly, fortnightly or monthly collections from one of our uniformed employees, who will safely transport the paperwork back to our shredding facility in a secure van. We know how important it is that your documents don’t fall into the wrong hands and we take security very seriously.
We provide a certificate of destruction to our customers as proof that their paperwork has been properly destroyed.
Absolutely all of the paper we shred is recycled. It is used to make paper towels and toilet roll – so it’s definitely put to good use! That is also done at UK mills – we don’t ship any waste for recycling overseas.
Just make sure you’re keeping your paperwork separate to other rubbish like food waste. With our industrial shredders, you don’t need to worry about staples, bindings or paperclips as you would with a home shredder. So, you don’t need to worry about dismantling presentations or old notebooks.
Obviously our shredding service is primarily for documentation, however, we can also help shred electronic items too! More and more frequently nowadays, confidential data is stored on our phones, our hard drives and USBs. It can be hard to properly wipe these of all traces of data – so once they’ve reached the end of their useful life, we can offer WEEE recycling of electronic equipment.
It can cost from just £15 plus VAT for a one-off shredding of a sack of documents you bring to us. One-off collections would start from as little as £70 plus VAT.
Absolutely! We can either offer a self storage unit for you to store your own items in or we also provide a document management service. We can keep hold of your documents in our secure storage centre, carefully tracked so we can retrieve any needed with a moment’s notice. However, if those are to be destroyed once a certain date is reached, we can do that automatically – taking the onus off you having to remember and freeing up valuable office space!
I stored my belongings in this space for one year, and it was absolutely pleasant experience. The staff is extremely professional and helpful, and they take time to understand the requirements of the client.
Even after not visiting my locker for one year, the storage is in excellent condition even after getting it back. I would recommend this to anyone. Really good experience!
Everything was just easy and straight forward. I've used other self storage places in the past but this was just so much better. The manager Sarah was great and really friendly. I would definitely recommend this company and will be using them again next year!!!
Jodie was fantastic and getting the storage booked was really easy. The unit was perfect for what I needed to store over the summer.
