From Pickup to Certificate
Book
You tell us how many carriers need to go and of what type. You get a fixed price up front, with no surprises.
Collect
We come to your address in Zaandam and take the carriers straight to our own destruction facility.
Log
Every carrier is logged by serial number before it enters the shredder, so the count adds up.
Destroy
Physical destruction at the DIN 66399 level the material calls for, with a certificate listing every serial number.
One Fixed Contact in Zaandam
With a national chain your carriers often go to a regional depot first and only reach the shredder later. Not with us. We work out of Amsterdam-Noord with one fixed contact, not a call centre. Your carriers go straight to our own destruction facility. No interim storage, no handover to third parties, no days-long trip across the country.
That short in-house route is exactly what the GDPR asks of you when disposing of data carriers. A retired drive that goes missing en route is a data breach, even if nothing else happens to it. Read more about the standard in DIN 66399 explained and in our full guide to data destruction.
For Zaandam Businesses and Private Clients
Zaandam combines industry and logistics on the Achtersluispolder with offices around Inverdan and the station, creative businesses on the Hembrug site and care practices near the Zaans Medisch Centrum. There are also many accountancy and bookkeeping firms in the centre. In industry and logistics especially, machines, scanners and old workstations are left behind with storage still inside them, and those are easily overlooked. We work for all of those organisations and for private clients in Westerwatering, Rosmolenwijk, Kogerveldwijk and 't Kalf. Private clients and businesses pay the same rates. Think of:
- Retired laptops and workstations
- Servers and drives from a server room
- SSDs and NVMe drives
- Backup tapes (LTO and DAT)
- USB sticks and memory cards
- Old phones and tablets
Not sure whether wiping is enough? With SSDs and encrypted drives it more often is not. Read our guide to destroying hard drives and to disposing of USB sticks and memory cards.
Frequently Asked Questions about Data Destruction in Zaandam
Do you collect data carriers across all of Zaandam?
Yes. We collect data carriers throughout Zaandam, from Inverdan and the centre to the Achtersluispolder, Poelenburg, Westerwatering and Kogerveldwijk. We also come to the rest of the Zaanstreek, such as Koog aan de Zaan, Zaandijk, Wormerveer, Krommenie, Assendelft, Westzaan and Oostzaan. There is no call-out charge.
What does data destruction cost in Zaandam?
A hard drive or SSD costs € 8 per unit, a USB stick, memory card or backup tape € 1.50, and a phone or tablet € 9. Lower volume rates apply from 25 units. There is no call-out charge in Zaandam. All prices exclude 21% VAT.
How quickly can you collect in Zaandam?
Zaandam sits just above our base in Amsterdam-Noord, so a pickup around Inverdan or on the Achtersluispolder is often possible within a few working days. For clearing a server room or a business premises we schedule a fixed day. If you are in a hurry, an urgent pickup can usually be arranged.
Do you wipe the drives or actually destroy them?
We destroy them physically. Software wiping leaves more behind on SSDs and encrypted drives than people expect, and it cannot be verified afterwards. Every carrier goes through the shredder at the DIN 66399 level its material calls for, so reconstruction is impossible.
Do I get the serial numbers on the certificate?
Yes. We log every carrier by serial number before it is destroyed. Each serial number is listed separately on the Certificate of Destruction, with the date and order number, so you can demonstrate per carrier that it was disposed of.
