Our Secure Data Destruction Service
We arrange an ad-hoc collection or a schedule for regular collections. Our fully trained operatives arrive at your business premises, before transferring the waste to our high-security MOD-approved vehicles.
Any products, textiles, or print waste will be weighed on-site (this stage does not apply for the destruction of hard drives and IT equipment).
Once the process is complete, we issue a certificate of destruction showing the weight and details of the collection. This is a minimum requirement for anyone disposing of confidential waste.
Your waste is transferred to one of our high-security depots in Glasgow or Nottingham where it will be destroyed - the materials will then be recycled where possible.
All carried out as per BS EN 15713 or equivalent.
