Background info:

Businesses need to comply with legislation and ensure that client, employee and other confidential business information is kept secure at all times. Identity theft is a growing concern for businesses and individuals alike.  Sensitive and confidential data can be communicated and stored in any organisation in a number of ways and as such confidential waste service perform a critical role in protecting and destroying commercial and personally sensitive data.

McGrath Confidential Waste Recycling Solutions:

We can supply special secure containers for collecting confidential waste. These can be lockable (i.e. locked using a padlock) with appropriately sized openings to prevent unauthorised access to confidential waste. Typically these will be located adjacent to photocopier/printing areas.

• On-site destruction– involves transporting a portable shredding machine delivered to site which is recorded via CCTV.  We apply this methodology at our current waste management contract with the Metropolitan Police.
• Off-site destruction – involves removing the waste bins to a secure location where shredding is carried out and recorded via CCTV.

All confidential waste operatives are fully trained and security vetted and each consignment is documented with a Waste Transfer Note and a Certificate of Destruction as evidence that your confidential waste has been dealt with appropriately. Once shredded in a secure environment, all paper is baled and recycled.  Utilising our confidential waste destruction service therefore delivers an environmental benefit as well as providing your company with complete peace of mind.

How it is recycled:

Following the shredding process most items that have passed through the process are able to be recycled and as such the shredded items are delivered to an appropriate re-processor.
