How drop off shredding works.
Put your documents in boxes, garbage bags or any container you have available. Then bring them you our drop off location, no appointment is necessary. We do recommend you call A1 Datashred when you are on your way or have arrived. One of our staff members will meet you at garage door #7. You will be able to sit comfortably in front of the shredder and watch our staff feed your papers into the shredder until they have all been reduced to tiny unreadable particles of paper. We will give you a Certificate of Destruction, along with your receipt.
Why our drop off service is better.
Most drop off services don’t shred the documents on the spot. What happens is they weigh your documents, you pay them and then they place your confidential papers in a bin. Your documents will sit in that bin until a 3rd-party company, that you don’t know or have never met, comes to remove the bin and take it to some other location to shred them. The problem is you can’t confirm if your documents have actually been shredded. Worse yet, you don’t know how many different people handle your documents before they are destroyed. Our shred while you wait service eliminates all of these problems.
