Doing business with clients and customers often requires companies to keep important information such as names, contact details and payment details on paper files. Naturally, it is vital that this information is kept secure to prevent criminal minded individuals from accessing it for fraudulent purposes.
Inevitably though, a time will come when this data no longer needs keeping and therefore it will have to be destroyed. Most companies do this by shredding their unwanted paperwork.
Whilst very small businesses may be able to dispose of their paper files with nothing more convoluted than a personal shredder; larger companies with greater amounts of paper records normally have to look for more comprehensive solutions, such as outsourcing their shredding requirements to a professional on-site shredding company.
These services consist of expert professionals bringing a gated mobile shredding vehicle to a company’s premises and providing their clients with security sacks or lockable secure containers for them to put their unwanted paper files in. This confidential information is then collected by CRB checked operatives and shredded on-site. Once the paper has been destroyed, the client is presented with a Certificate of Destruction to confirm the on-site service has been carried out to BSIA standards.
As well as being a supremely convenient, secure and reliable way to destroy data and documents; on-site data destruction provides companies with great peace of mind as they can sure their confidential information will never fall into the wrong hands.
