Whether you are an SME or a larger organisation, you are likely to handle confidential information, which means you will require secure shredding services.

As well as our excellent recycling services, we can ensure that confidential documents are disposed of through secure shredding. Businesses in Glasgow and Edinburgh, as well as further afield within our network can rest assured that their sensitive waste is disposed of with care and compliance to all relevant legislation 

By using our service, you can ensure your confidential documents are regularly collected and shredded, making it easy to keep on top of them and prevents them sitting in an office longer than necessary. We offer both an ad-hoc service to those who don’t regularly produce confidential material and a bulk uplift service for large clear-outs. All of our collections are carried out separately from the rest of your waste and recycling by a dedicated and trained team.

Why using secure shredding services is important

Having a scheduled secure shredding service means you reduce the risk of a data breach and a potential fine for failing to comply with the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR).

Aside from that, it’s also important that your customers know that their information is safe with you. At Change Waste Recycling, we not only securely destroy confidential papers but also recycle them, so it’s a win-win for your business and the environment.

What are the UKSSA Standards

We are members of the United Kingdom Security Shredding Association (UKSSA), which is the only UK-based association dedicated to rigorously enforcing security shredding operational standards.

UKSSA members must comply with a Code of Practice and are regularly audited to ensure they meet the required standards. Being a UKSSA member demonstrates that our customers’ data is 100% safe and regulated.

The UKSSA Standards can be viewed here.
