Scanning On Demand

Many businesses need to be able to retrieve original copies of important documents but a physical copy isn’t always necessary or practical. Being able to request a scanned copy of a file is the quickest, easiest and cheapest way to retrieve its data while keeping it within the secure confines of our archiving centre.

Our Scanning On Demand service is ideal for any last-minute requests when you require a document urgently. We can retrieve it, scan it and email it over to you without delay.

Scanning and Deep Storage

Once scanned, many documents need to be retained for extended periods of time to remain compliant. Our Deep Storage service is perfect for such documents, offering you a low-cost solution for secure long-term storage. This service gives you peace of mind knowing that the original document still exists in paper form but isn’t cluttering up your office.

Many businesses are reducing the amount of paper they use on a day-to-day basis. While this is feasible for some documents, it is not possible for others. Many files such as contracts and wills are legally required to have a stored physical copy and be readily accessible at any time. Being able to scan, store and securely destroy your sensitive documents is vital to any modern business.

If you require advice or a quotation on document scanning, please contact the Flexible Storage team and one of technical staff will meet with you to discuss your requirements. All scanning will be attached to the corresponding document on our file management system.
