Document Shredding Service
In today’s world of data protection and identity theft, securely disposing of sensitive documents is essential. Britannia Alan Cook offers a cost-effective shredding service for both domestic and commercial customers, with convenient “pick-up and shred” or “drop-off and shred” options available.
Whether you need to dispose of a few old bank statements or an entire archive of client records, we tailor our service to your needs. Using cross-cut shredding, we turn documents into confetti-like pieces before sending them for recycling.
After destruction, you’ll receive a Certificate of Shredding – proof that your documents were securely handled and properly disposed of.


Britannia Alan Cook’s shredding service is part of the Simply Shredding network.

Business Document Shredding Service
Whether you need regular or occasional document shredding, Britannia Alan Cook offers a flexible solution to suit your business.
Regular Collection Service
After a quick consultation to assess your needs, we’ll agree on a collection schedule that works for you. We provide secure shredding sacks, large bags with tamper-proof ties, for your documents. On collection day, our team arrives with minimal disruption to collect your filled sacks and replenish your supply.
Secure In-Office Options
If your business requires added security, we also offer locked disposal consoles and wheelie bins:
-
Document Consoles
These sleek, locked cabinets fit seamlessly into any modern office. Staff simply post documents through the slot, which fall into a hidden shredding sack replaced during each visit. -
Lockable Wheelie Bins
Ideal for high-volume disposal, these locked bins feature a secure slot and are swapped out entirely on collection day—quick, secure, and efficient.

IT Destruction Service
Our computers, phones and devices hold a host of confidential data, whether it be customer records, banking details or our own personal information. When disposing of our old IT it is imperative that such data does not fall into the wrong hands. As even deleted files are recoverable, the only true way to be sure that your data is gone for good is through physical destruction. Here at Alan Cook we can provide you with a full ISO 9001, ISO 14001 compliant IT destruction service, regulated to WEEE standards by the Environment Agency permit number WEE/TM0006ZT/ATF. We can turn hard drives, laptops, phones, computers, tablets monitors or any other IT equipment into little more than a pile of metal confetti. As will all of our shredding services, once destroyed you will receive a certificate of destruction.
