Client Requirements:
An small accountancy practice produces regular, small quantities of confidential waste.
Issues are security and restricted internal space.
Solution:
iData Destructions Regular Shredding Service provides a secure, locked console that occupies a small footprint.
Once a document is posted into the locked console no-one else can read its content allowing the same console to be used by all office staff (operations, management, etc).
An 8 week trial was initiated to accurately assess the appropriate collection frequency.
After each service visit a Certificate of Destruction is issued.
The new regular shredding service provides a secure end of document life solution, prevented excessive clutter in the storerooms and was complaint with GDPR.
After the trial it was agreed 2 consoles with a 4 weekly interval between collections.

Fantastic, friendly walk-in service on the doorstep. Excellent value for small amounts of shredding. Beats having to fill in lengthy online forms often required by other companies.’

Brilliant service. I am so pleased I found this company after being let down by a National company. The service from iData Destruction was much more personalised and flexible and also more cost effective. I couldn’t fault anything from my first enquiry, to my devices / documents being dropped off (George offered to collect my items but I chose to take them myself) and then receiving the certificates of destruction and invoice. All very smooth and professional. I will use them again and I would highlight recommend them too.

I’ve always used IDD for confidential shredding – whether it’s business or personal. The drive in service is very quick and convenient. No hesitation in recommending this local business.

Excellent service which I have used before. Clearing out an office so collected a number of bags from iDATA a few weeks ago then rang re home collection of the bags, plus laptops and discs/dongles etc. …. all collected next day and I am completely satisfied that everything is now safely and properly disposed of. Would recommend.

iDD’s service is superb! Their walk in service is secure, fast, economical and transparent thus giving confidence to the privacy conscious customer that their data has been destroyed thoroughly.

This is the fist time we have used them (having a mega, well overdue clearout at home) although I have worked for 2 oganisations locally who have used them for years. The place is accesible, the cost is more than reasonable, the staff are very helpful and happy! we got to see our bag being shredded and the certificate was emailed super promptly.

It was a pleasure dealing with iData. Friendly, pleasant staff only too happy to help with my car boot full of documents.
Just called in and was leaving within 10 mins
Invoice arrived promptly with accompanying certificate of destruction
Would have no hesitation recommending this Southport family owned business.

Excellent service especially for drop in and always ready to help when required.
I’ve sent my young son a couple of times to drop off sacks of waste paper and the kind gentleman showed him how it all works.
My son was really impressed and shared his exciting news during dinner. What a fabulous few they have.

Excellent service, staff come out to collect the confidential waste from my car and take my details. Have dropped off many times I can see my documents being shredded and am asked each time. Staff are friendly and helpful. The certificate of destruction is received the next day. I think it is reasonably priced and have no hesitation recommending IDataDestruction.

As a walk in I was amazed at the efficiency of the shredding. Staff were really helpful and allowed me to view the destruction of files with no problem. They even gave me replacement bags for next time. Well use again

Excellent service. iData offer a collection service or pull up to the front door, the latter of which I chose to do this time around, having used their collection service in the past.
Within seconds I was watching our 10 boxes of confidential waste being pulped. Peace of mind knowing it’s been professionally disposed of and recycled. I provided my details and an invoice will be sent. I was in and out in just a few painless minutes. 100% recommended.

I phoned the week before to arrange a walk in appointment for personal confidential paperwork and 2 computer hard drives. Payment is by bank transfer or cash. The whole procedure was straightforward, the lady who attended to me was kind & helpful. Highly recommend.

Excellent service! They come every week to empty the collection, just pop in and empty and leave a paper receipt for the collection, takes seconds. Also great at extra collections, just give them a call, they will collect ASAP and even drop off bags if you need them. Would highly recommend!

Enjoyed watching the actual shredding take place. Will definitely go back. Discovered they can destroy more than just paper goods (hard drives, for example). Thank you for a great friendly service today.

Great professional service. For the home user like me they provide a bag and tie and once filled they will securely shred the paper contents. Always ready to help carry the bags and always friendly. Space for unloading the bags too. Forgot they closed at 12.30pm Fridays. But George was coming out and took my bag .. etc what a star. No more shredding and replacing shredders every few years ..IDD are the complete service

First time used. No need to book just turned up. Quick efficient system. Need cash to pay. Even offered to get it out of car. Pay by sack and get email to confirm destruction. Will be using again.

I have recently started using iData to shred old company documents. I have been getting a first class service from iData and at the same time saving myself hours and hours of standing by our old shredding machine. I would recommend iData to everyone.

Fast, efficient and more importantly traceable service from iData. Turned up, dropped my paperwork off, watched it being destroyed, and a couple of days later got a certificate of destruction.
All done by helpful and friendly staff. Many thanks, will definitely be using you again

Great company, collect regularly and always on time. The office staff are friendly and accommodating. If I need an extra collection, they are always happy to schedule in where possible at short notice. Great price for the service received, wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.
