What is Mobile Paper Shredding?

Paper Shredding

Within every business, there will be a variety of confidential documents that include secure information such as customer home and work addresses, credit card and passport information and driving licenses. These need to be destroyed effectively to ensure the information does not enter the wrong hands once it is no longer of use to you. The most simple way to effectively destroy your paper copies is to shred all documents and send them off for recycling through a trusted provider like Global Office Supplies.

Global Office Supplies Will Securely Collect and Shred Your Documents

The Data Protection Act

Not only should this be done through business security, but you also have a legal duty under the Data Protection Act to ensure that supplier, staff and customer documents are held and destroyed securely to help eliminate the risk of criminal activity and exploitation of data.

Identity Theft

Over the years, identity theft has become more and more common, with the UK identity theft crime rate alone rising over 500% each year, costing the economy around £1.7bn in total. To ensure your suppliers, staff and customers do not become a victim of this crime, we suggest you shred all of your unwanted paper documents and store those that are needed in a secure place, only granting trusted, relevant people access.

Our Solution

Global Office Supplies have a secure, four-step shredding solution you can rely on which fully complies with the Data Protection Act.
