Think GDPR is just about email consents? Think again. Every document in your office containing personal data is subject to GDPR rules — and that includes paper files.

At Cross Cut Shredding, we help businesses across Somerset stay compliant and avoid costly fines with our regular shredding service. Whether you need business shredding or drop-in services, we've got you covered.

The GDPR Problem

Under GDPR, any printed document containing personal information must be:

  • Stored securely

  • Disposed of responsibly

  • Tracked as part of your data handling process

Fail to do that, and you could face hefty fines and reputational damage.

The Solution? Scheduled Secure Shredding

Our document consoles are lockable containers placed inside your business premises. You simply drop in paperwork, and we handle the rest.

Weekly or monthly pickups

Certificates of destruction provided

No contracts, just reliability

Whether you're in HR, finance, healthcare or education — regular shredding isn't optional, it's essential.
