DELIVER YOUR HARD DRIVES TO US FOR SHREDDING AT OUR PREMISES - just telephone us to get a quote and arrange an appointment.

Please Note: Our machinery is set up for shredding Hard Drives and Digital Cartridge Tapes. It is not suitable for  shredding paper, floppy discs, optical discs (CDs) or the old 10.5" reeled tapes.

INCINERATION OF DIGITAL TAPES
Shredded data tape waste is difficult to recycle and as a consequence it is sent to land fill. However, for some this is not a satisfactory outcome. For an extra fee we can arrange for the waste to be incinerated. 

INCINERATION OF MICROFICHE FILM
Unless the shred size is very very small, shredded microfiche film is still very easily readable. Such waste usually ends up in landfill which isn't a good idea. We do not shred microfiche film but we can arrange for shredding on site. More importantly we can arrange to have your microfiche film incinerated. To be doubly sure, the film can be  shredded on site and then incinerated in an approved incineration facility.
