Confidential Shredding for Businesses and Individuals

Secure shredding for approved business records across the UK, plus confidential paper drop-offs for individuals at our Preston facility.

Secure Destruction, Clearly Arranged

When Records No Longer Need to Be Kept, Destroy Them with Care

Businesses can arrange secure shredding for approved files, office paperwork and archived records across the UK. Individual customers can drop off confidential paper at our Preston facility for £7.99 per bag. A certificate of destruction is provided once shredding is complete.

Confidential paperwork builds up in every kind of workplace. We arrange approved paper destruction for law firms, healthcare providers, pharmacies, accountancy and finance teams, construction and property businesses, schools, charities, manufacturers, utilities and public bodies.

Use the service for paper files and documents in confidential waste bags or archive boxes, whether you are arranging a one-off office clear-out or regular collections. Contact us with the amount and where it is held; we will confirm whether drop-off, collection or a larger planned clearance is the right option.

How to Arrange Shredding

Four Straightforward Steps

  1. Decide which records are approved for destruction and keep anything still under review separate.
  2. Estimate the number of bags or boxes and tell us your postcode.
  3. Agree a drop-off or collection arrangement and any costs before the work starts.
  4. We confidentially shred the approved paperwork and provide a certificate of destruction once the work is complete.
Your organisation authorises destruction. We do not decide retention periods for you. Please confirm that all records in the consignment are approved for destruction before handover.
