The Six Steps

On Site Document Destruction
This is how it works. On your premises, we set up locked shredding consoles that hold specially designed secure blue bags. Our Customer Service Representatives (CSRs) pick up the console contents on a schedule that suits you. They take the filled blue bags to their mobile shredding truck. Then, behind locked doors, your documents are immediately shredded into unidentifiably small pieces – a process you’re welcome to observe. Finally, we give you a Certificate of Destruction after every shred.

Service Excellence
Our CSRs are well recognised for their exceptional customer service orientation and their personal commitment to total document security. All our representatives are security-screened and insured. Shred-it CSRs deliver with professionalism every day. Their dependability and talent for working quickly and efficiently without disrupting the flow of work, earns them compliments from customers on a daily basis and high marks in our independent customer surveys.

Secure Solutions
The only acceptable standard for us is total security. We achieve this through a combination of rock solid corporate values and integrity, state-of-the-art proprietary technology, Shred-it's on site high security document control, and ISO 9002 compliance.

Proprietary Technology
Our in-truck shredders are incredibly powerful, turning even clipboards and cardboard into a fine confetti that can’t possibly be reconstructed. There is no need to separate fine papers – staples and paper clips are OK.

Legal Compliance
Governments and Regulators around the world are now demanding that companies take responsibility for ensuring the security of their confidential records. This is not only good business practice; it’s the law. This strict new corporate environment means that aggressive sanctions will be imposed on organisations who are less than rigorous about the absolute security of all their confidential documents.

Environemntal Responsibility
By recycling our clients' shredded documents, Shred-it proudly supports the manufacture of many different types of recycled paper products. In fact, every time two Shred-it consoles are filled, our clients save a tree – becoming part of a network that saves over 9 million trees a year worldwide. At the end of each year, all of our clients receive an Environmental Certificate detailing the positive impact their relationship with Shred-it has had on the environment
