Broad versus focused
The core difference lies in scope. Vernietigen.nl is broad. Anyone who wants to destroy not only paper but also electronics, textiles, film or optical media can bring it all to a provider like Vernietigen.nl in one go. The choice between on-site at the door and offsite, plus the flexible container options, makes it a versatile party for varied material streams.
DeSnipperaar is focused. We handle documents and data carriers, nothing more and nothing less. That means no textiles or electronics, but it does mean a tight process with sealed pickup, offsite destruction within 24 hours, DIN 66399 P-5 and a certificate per job. On top of that our rates are fixed and online, from € 30 per box, without a contract. For anyone who knows exactly that it concerns paper and data carriers, that combination of local proximity and price transparency is the appealing side of working focused. Anyone who needs to dispose of a broader range of materials is better served by a broad destroyer.
