Confidential waste collection
Regular confidential waste collection helps businesses that work with any sensitive documents and items get rid of them safely.

We can provide professional confidential waste collection as often as you require.
Daily, weekly, and fortnightly confidential waste collection is possible for regular and reliable removals. Organise secure waste collection on a schedule that meets your needs.

All confidential waste removal is conducted by licensed waste carriers to ensure it’s handled and transported safely and legally. We provide trained and accredited staff with the skills to collect and dispose of all your confidential waste reliably and securely.
Anyone who comes into contact with your confidential materials will have been vetted under a specialist security screening known as BS7858.

Confidential waste disposal
Disposing of confidential waste must be done properly to destroy the sensitive data it contains. This ensures the information can’t be recovered and accessed by other people or businesses. Confidential waste covers a wide range of items, which all need to be destroyed in a recorded and evidenced way.
Specialist support is vital for reliable and responsible disposal of confidential waste. Business Waste Ltd is accredited under the BS EN 15713:2009 standard, which provides a framework of conditions you must adhere to. This gives our customers the assurance that confidential information is destroyed with security as our highest priority.
The most common method of confidential waste disposal is shredding. This delivers an efficient way to destroy confidential documents so the information they contain can’t be retrieved. The shredded remains may be sent for pulping and turned into new paper and cardboard products. Some confidential waste is incinerated.
At Business Waste we provide secure waste disposal for any type and volume of confidential items. Sensitive documents are transported by licensed waste carriers to a nearby waste management facility for disposal away from landfill. You receive a free duty of care certificate that confirms the location, date, and method of confidential waste disposal for peace of mind.

What is confidential waste?
Confidential waste is any document that contains personal information about suppliers, customers, or employees. This can include their name, address, contact information and financial details. Documents that outline business plans, strategies, financial data, and intellectual property are also examples of confidential waste.
If a third party accesses this type of information, they could carry out fraud, blackmail, identity theft, or put your business at risk. As a business, you must adhere to the Data Protection Act 2018 (including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)) in your use and disposal of confidential documents and papers.
Businesses across all industries deal with confidential documents and waste of various types. This includes almost anything containing any personal information.
Some examples of confidential waste are:
- Personal files – CVs, application letters, business cards, and ID badges.
- Financial data – invoices, order forms, bills, and financial statements.
- Health records – official healthcare records and notes by medical professionals.
- Social care records – letters, reports, and photographs.
- Criminal records – obtained from legal authorities and law firms.
Confidential waste also includes information and documents about your business that contain sensitive content, such as:
- New business proposals
- Business plans
- Contracts
- Product samples or profiles
- Research data
