Confidential Waste & Document Disposal in London

In the age of identity fraud and credit card cloning, confidential waste destruction should be at the forefront of every business owner’s mind. Almost every organisation will need to dispose of confidential employee data at some point, and most will regularly handle their customer’s personal or even financial data as well.

As the laws around confidential data continue to be expanded, businesses have to be more responsible than ever when dealing with confidential waste and document disposal. Hard drives, servers, network equipment and confidential papers all need to be disposed of in a confidential and secure manner. This is where Junkwize can help.

Any data on hard drives of PCs, servers or laptops is securely destroyed to DOD standards and in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998.

The importance of proper confidential document destruction

Outsourcing your confidential waste disposal makes sense for two main reasons. Firstly, it allows your company to ensure that the confidential data in your waste is properly and completely disposed of, eliminating the risk that it might fall into the hands of criminals, fraudsters or even commercial rivals who could benefit from getting access to it.

Secondly, by using an environmentally-conscious disposal company such as Junkwize, you can be assured that your confidential waste is disposed of in a way which has as little environmental impact as possible. After carefully removing any trace of confidential data from your items, we will recycle what we can from the remains, reducing the amount of waste produced.
