About Shredding

Not Just Paper Shredding!

Now more than ever businesses and individuals understand the importance privacy and security when faced with the growing statistics of fraud and identity theft.  Take a simple step towards ensuring the privacy or you, and your clients, by calling Cut2Shreds for a free quote today.

We can now offer your business a complete file destruction service which includes all types of computer hard disks and storage devices.  Hard disks will be instantly reduced to waste metal in a matter of seconds – permanently destroying any possibility of file retrieval.

Whether you are required by law to conduct secure document shredding, or your simply removing unwanted archiving, Cut2Shreds can service all your needs.  We have a small, dedicated team who pride themselves on friendly and prompt service.

Within 24 Hours we can arrange for a wheelie-bin to be installed in your premises ready to capture your sensitive documents.  All your waste paper, excess scrap, confidential and un-wanted documentation can be placed into your onsite bin – or call us for a one off job specific to your needs.  Plastics and metal should not be placed in document bins as this contaminates the shredding process and may incur further charges.  Your scheduled collection/rotation will then take your full bin and replace it with a clean empty one ready to be filled again.

If you don’t require a regular service, we are more than happy to discuss your requirements and provide a quote based on your needs – large or small.  Small jobs are generally inexpensive and well worth the peace of mind!

Ask for a Shred- Certificate for further confirmation your sensitive document destruction has been completed professionally and promptly.

Once the bin is removed, it is taken to our warehouse in Southport where the contents are manually fed through an industrial shredder. Documents are not stored for lengthy periods and we understand the importance of having sensitive information destroyed within 24 hours.  The fine ’5mm Crosscut’ pulp produced by our industrial shredder is illegible and permanent – piecing togethor any part of a document is near impossible.

Once paper shredding is complete, the pulp is packed tightly into large compacted bundles ready for transportation to a major recycling plant. The recycling process involves water-logging which ultimately reduces the paper to a recyclable sludge.

Archive Destruction


We are happy to visit your office or storage warehouse to provide a tailored quote for your archive destruction. The cost of archive destruction varies depending on the content of archive boxes (ie: percentage of contaminants such as plastics and metal), and the quantity required.

For large amounts of non-highly sensitive documents, a larger industrial shredder is used  for destruction.  This machine pulps large amounts of paper waste quickly and efficiently – ready for the paper to be compacted and then transported to a recycling plant.
