Market-leading one-off shredding services
Need a one-off shredding service?
One-time shredding is ideal for office cleanouts, relocations or end-of-year file purges in compliance with document retention policies. While nothing beats a good spring clean, multiple stakeholders, exit deadlines and budgets can sometimes make this a daunting prospect. Fortunately, we utilise a well-honed process to make destroying sensitive materials as simple as possible.
Our one-time shredding services are designed to handle large volumes of documents – making them ideal for companies that have spent years accumulating files they no longer want or need. While you may be concerned about the environmental impact of your office clear-out, we adhere to a stringent zero-to-landfill process. We recycle all the materials we shred to reduce waste and support our clients’ sustainability initiatives.
All you need to do to schedule a one-off shredding service is contact us to discuss your needs and set a date and time that works for you. We will then provide you with specific instructions and confirm the details of the shredding process.
