A confidential shredding service can help businesses securely manage paperwork that is no longer required. Customer information, employee records, invoices, financial documents and everyday business paperwork can all contain information that needs to be disposed of securely.

So, how do you know when it’s time to consider a regular confidential shredding service?

1. Confidential Paperwork Keeps Building Up

If bags, boxes, filing cabinets or storage areas are regularly filling with documents waiting to be destroyed, a scheduled shredding service can prevent the backlog.

Rather than waiting for a large clear-out, confidential material can be securely destroyed at regular intervals.

2. Staff Aren’t Sure What Should Be Shredded

Confidential information can sometimes end up in general waste or recycling simply because staff are unsure what should be securely destroyed.

Having a clear shredding process makes confidential document disposal easier for everyone.

3. You Only Arrange a Confidential Shredding Service When You Run Out of Space

If shredding is only organised when boxes start piling up, it may be time for a regular service.

Collections can be scheduled around the amount of confidential waste your business actually produces – whether that’s every few weeks or just a few times per year.

4. Your Business Regularly Handles Personal or Sensitive Information

Customer details, employee records, financial information and other confidential documents should be handled securely throughout their lifecycle – including when they are no longer required.

5. You Need a Record That Your Documents Were Securely Destroyed

Knowing that confidential documents have been destroyed is important.

At Security in Shredding, a Certificate of Destruction is provided following each service, giving your business a clear record that the material has been securely destroyed.
