How to choose a shredding company

Security – When choosing a shredding company consider how your documents are handled, whether that is onsite at your premises or offsite. Also consider how your business stores your documents in between each collection because 40% of all security breaches are not intentional but an oversight.

Expertise – Does the business collecting your paperwork employ people who are fully versed in handling your confidential paperwork? Are they fully background checked to correct standards and not just to disclosure Scotland standards?

Solution – Is the shredding service you are being offered correct for your business? Fundamentally there are two types of service; onsite and offsite shredding, however does the service offered to you fit with how your business operates?

Recycling – It is important to consider where the paper goes once it has been shredded.

At Yorshred we offer a bespoke service tailored around your business needs by offering a free initial onsite security audit. Working with you we will select the correct service for your business whether it be onsite or offsite and at which service intervals.

We have a range of secure lockable containers to suit your business allowing you the peace of mind that between service intervals your paperwork is locked away and safe.

Our staff are all background security checked so that you have the peace of mind that professionals are dealing with your paperwork.

Whether it be onsite or offsite once the shredding has been completed all of the shredded material is bailed and sent to a UK paper mill for recycling – 0% of our shredded material goes to landfill.

Once complete we provide you with a certificate of destruction for further peace of mind.
