Simply Shredding Plants 2,028 Trees and Counting: Giving Back with The Woodland Trust UK
In an era where environmental responsibility is no longer optional but essential, businesses are stepping up to reduce their impact and give back to the planet. Simply Shredding is proud to be one of them.
We’re not just about securely shredding your confidential documents—we’re about making a difference. That’s why we support The Woodland Trust UK, the country’s largest woodland conservation charity, to plant trees across the UK and support reforestation efforts.
A Shredding Service with a Purpose
For many, shredding might seem like the final step—destroying sensitive documents and keeping information safe. But for us, it’s just the beginning of a greener journey. By choosing Simply Shredding, our customers are also helping to plant the seeds for a healthier planet. Literally.
Every tonne of paper we shred and recycle contributes to tree planting initiatives across the UK, helping restore native woodland, combat climate change, and improve biodiversity. It's part of our mission to ensure our business leaves a positive environmental footprint.
As of today, we’re thrilled to share that our support for The Woodland Trust has already resulted in the planting of 2,028 trees.
That’s more than just a number—it represents thousands of square meters of future woodland, habitats for wildlife, and cleaner air for all of us. It’s a testament to what’s possible when businesses and charities work together with a shared vision for a greener future.
Each tree planted is a reminder that sustainable action doesn’t always have to be grand—it can be as simple as choosing a shredding partner that cares.
Why We Chose The Woodland Trust
The Woodland Trust’s work aligns perfectly with our values. They protect and create woodland spaces, restore damaged habitats, and campaign for the importance of trees in tackling the climate emergency. Their efforts ensure that every tree planted isn’t just good for today—it’s an investment in tomorrow.
Together, we’re helping to bring forests back to life in communities where they’re needed most.
What This Means for You
By using Simply Shredding, you’re not only protecting your data—you’re helping to protect the planet.
Whether you’re a business looking to dispose of files responsibly or a homeowner cleaning out old paperwork, your choice matters. Every document shredded contributes to this initiative. And with 2,028 trees already planted, the impact is real—and growing.
Our Commitment Continues
We’re just getting started. Simply Shredding is committed to continuing and exploring even more ways to be environmentally responsible.
So next time you see your documents going into one of our secure bins, know that they're not just being destroyed—they're helping build a greener future.
