5 step Confidential Shredding process:

1. Assess Requirement

Trained staff will work with you to assess the most secure, effective and cost efficient way to collect your confidential waste.

2. Secure Collection

Items are collected by Stor-a-File’s own CRB checked, referenced and uniformed staff in Stor-a-File’s own GPS tracked and alarmed vehicles.



3. Confidential Shredding

Once items are delivered to Stor-a-File’s site they are scanned in to the shredding bay, quality checked and loaded onto the shredding area. The paper is then fed onto a conveyor which leads up to the Industrial Shredder, where the paper is cross cut to the relevant standard, mixed and then baled.


4. Certification

Once items are shredded and baled, Stor-a-File will issue Destruction Certificates to clients with as an itemised Destruction Workorder by email and/or post. These are issued to include barcode numbers or weight, depending on specification.



5. Recycling

Our recycling is carried out by Newport Paper, a market leading recycling company which has evolved to become one of the most efficient recoverers and reprocessors of paper in the UK, recovering circa 50,000 tonnes of paper per year. Their ISO9001, ISO14001 and ISO18001 Accreditations ensure that they are responsible and secure partners.
