Larger businesses might have a constant stream of paper documents that need to be shredded. As such, they’ll work regularly with a paper shredding company, who will arrange regular collections of waste documents, or may even shred documents in house. For smaller businesses, however, the burden of paper might not be as heavy, which is why a one off shredding service may be more appropriate.
What do we actually mean when we’re talking about one off shredding services?
Throughout the business year there might be various self-imposed or imposed-from-outside landmarks. For instance, the start and end of the financial year could be classed as an imposed-from-outside landmark. How does your business react to these kinds of landmarks?
Certain times of year might better lend themselves to having a one off or annual paper shred. Maybe it’s time to shred unnecessary documents pertaining to the last financial year? Maybe, more loosely, it’s spring and your business could do with a large-scale spring clean.
The documents that shred could be very innocuous documents carrying non-confidential data, or they could be, for example, customer’s financial details requiring secure document disposal. In both cases, paper shredding makes sense, and is an environmentally friendly and secure way for your business to rid itself of a paper burden, on a one off basis.
You don’t have to be a large business to benefit from large-scaling paper shredding, and maybe it’s just what your smaller business needs to tidy up its office space.
