What to know locally in Pretoria
Embassies, departments and law firms deal with confidential paper daily, so an on site <a href="/paper-shredders/">shredding service</a> with locked bins and a certificate is worth asking for. Large departments often look at <a href="/managed-print-services/">managed print</a> to track pages per unit. Copy shops line the streets around the Hatfield campus and the courts, and technicians from Silverton reach most of the city within a normal call-out.
Pretoria: the offices, the volumes and the dealers
As the seat of national government, Pretoria runs on paper in a way few cities do. National departments in the city centre and Arcadia print submissions, tenders and reports, embassies and high commissions in Arcadia, Brooklyn and Waterkloof need secure scanning and shredding, and the High Court on Madiba Street keeps the attorneys around Church Square busy. Hatfield and Muckleneuk add tens of thousands of students and their copy shops, and Rosslyn's motor plants and suppliers run fleets of printers on the factory floor. Big summer storms and lightning come through the Magaliesberg valleys. Copier dealers and technicians sit in Menlyn, Hatfield, Lynnwood, Silverton and Pretoria West.
Typical paper shredders requests in the area come from:
- Government and municipalities: municipal records destroyed under a contract with locked bin collections
- Law firms, accountants and agents: an attorney's archive of closed files cleared by a shredding service
- Corporate and head offices: locked bins on every floor collected on a schedule with certificates
