Beyond data security

How secure document shredding boosts your business’ efficiency, space and safety.

GDPR and DUA in 2025

We all know about the importance of GDPR, the new DUA 2025 and the WEEE Directive in guiding how to prevent unauthorised access to your and your customers’ confidential information when it is no longer needed or being moved from one location to another.

By prevention we mean, of course, using a professional data shredding company to securely destroy your obsolete data.

DUA 2025

By ensuring your systems and processes’ compliance with regulations surrounding data protection, and the legislation designed to keep harmful materials and toxins out of landfill, you enhance your working practices and your reputation in your colleagues’ and customers’ eyes. All good.

But have you stopped to consider how regular document shredding can help you in other ways?

It boosts productivity

Decluttering your office with regular shredding means faster information retrieval, reduced stress, better team focus, and no one person resentfully left to ‘do the shredding’ or, indeed, having to deal with shredding at all. In short, regular document shredding streamlines your operations and increases your efficiency.

It frees up valuable space

Effective management of your old documents and archives means you can reclaim expensive office real estate, using it for more effective layouts and reducing storage costs, for increasing your efficiency.

It enhances your fire safety

No surprises here as paper is highly combustible, so removing it regularly from your workspace – whether in a large office or working from home – eliminates that hazard.

It protects your competitive advantage

Shredding strategic plans, financial information, and internal communications can safeguard your competitiveness, by protecting your business from potential rivals or bad actors.

Ready to give your workplace a boost? Here’s how Restore Datashred can help

Get into a new routine with our regular secure document shredding services, designed to fit you and whatever your business needs.

Need to witness your highly sensitive data falling on to the shredding blades? No problem, simply choose our on-site regular shredding service, where one of our high-speed mobile shredding vehicles comes to you.

Do you need security for the high volumes of confidential waste your business produces each week? Our off-site regular shredding service will fit the bill perfectly.

Here’s how it works

Whichever service you choose – on site or off site – or regularity – weekly, fortnightly or monthly – we deliver lockable cabinet bins, or wheelie bins, depending on your estimated volumes of confidential waste, at the time of your choosing.

You fill them.

We come to collect the bins at the agreed time. You can expect a security-checked, trained Secure Collection Operative to arrive and discretely and methodically remove all your confidential waste into their locked, GPS-tracked vehicle.

If we shred at your workplace, you can watch this happen before all the shreds are transported back to one of our security protocoled destruction centres for further processing and the issuing of a certificate of destruction.

Our process

Likewise, if we shred off site, at one of our destruction centres, your Datashred operative will lock all your bins into the vehicle and transport them there, where your confidential waste goes straight on to the shredding blades, and a certificate of destruction is promptly despatched. That’s it. An unbreakable, audited chain of custody throughout, precluding all gaps for risk. Week in, week out. Regular as clockwork, we will come to collect your confidential paper documents and digital media so that it’s not clogging up your processes, taking up space in your mind.

Not only that, but we’re a sure-fire guarantee for sustainability, too. We regard your confidential waste, once securely shredded, as a resource, and our commitment is to send nothing to landfill. We work with trusted recycling partners to ensure it gets correctly re-manufactured and back into the circular economy.
