Whether it’s a one-off post-clear-out collection you need, or a regular collections service in a busy business or industry sector, our customer services team can tailor a scheduled shredding service to your unique needs and requirements.



While paper records, documents and cardboard folders form the majority of what we shred, a significant percentage includes textiles, such as uniforms, hard drives, ID cards and other plastic and digital media. Ask us if we can shred it, and there’s a strong chance that we do!

How our off-site shredding service works

Secure off-site shredding

We deliver your security system

One of our secure collection operatives delivers a secure, lockable cabinet, console or wheelie bin to your site or sites, at a time to suit you. In that way, all confidential materials, from paper to hard drives to textiles, enter the secure disposal stream and not the general waste.

Convenient collection times

Our uniformed operative arrives promptly at your workplace to collect all your confidential materials. They will show their ID to one of your team to sign in, start the electronic chain of custody, and then quietly collect all the bins required.

Chain of custody from your site to ours

All the locked bins are logged and taken directly to our vehicle where they are secured. The GPS-tracked truck or van drives to the Restore Datashred destruction centre closest to you. Every step of the journey is electronically recorded. This creates an audit trail and proof of an unbroken chain of custody, for your peace of mind.

A prompt shred

All shredded material is sorted into 500kg bales and stored in secure and compliant depots before being processed and pulped.

After each shredding transaction we will send you a waste transfer notice and, on completion, a certificate of destruction. It’s that simple and reliable.

Why you should use off-site shredding services

Compliance with data protection legislation is a key concern of facilities and operations managers, and many others, everywhere. At the end of your data’s legally binding lifecycle, it’s imperative to secure the safe disposal of all manner of confidential waste and materials that can include, for example, paper and digital records and media, uniforms, ID cards, prototypes, or obsolete clothing lines.
