Iron Mountain secure shredding offers end-to-end shredding services with high-quality security at every stage of the process. Document destruction programmes can be tailored to suit the individual company.

Documents, CDs, hard drives and DVDs can be collected and securely transported to a shredding facility. All the materials are destroyed and the paper is 100% recycled. Customers can choose from a day-to-day service in which secure consoles are provided and collected at regular intervals. Alternatively there is a periodic service in which documents are collected as and when required.

Whichever service the customer chooses they are ensured a secure cost-effective shredding service, which offers security at all stages through a rigorous chain of custody, compliance with all data protection regulation by the provision of a certificate of destruction, increased employee productivity, ease and flexibility of implementation and full national coverage.

All documents are shredded to BS8470 level 4, so that they can never be reconstructed and all paper is recycled, so companies can monitor the positive impact on the environment of their programme through Iron Mountain’s green report.
