They're absolutely wonderful. They are outstanding. Their prices are very reasonable. You don't have to have a minimum. You can take one box full of paper over and have it shredded or they'll come pick up if you've got a lot of them. For me the important thing is that I can take one or two boxes over and I don't have to wait until I have a minimum of X number of boxes. They also have a little bit extra expense and you can watch them shred your papers. However I trust them so thoroughly that I don't need to do that anymore. They are just the premier service and I highly recommend them. I've used hem for years. They are the one company that I know my things are going to be shredded and other than that any other company I've ever used I want to see it happen, otherwise I am skeptical.

They were professional and efficient and nice to deal with. Each box takes about 2-4 minutes depending on the density of paper. There was no wait when I went so they shredded my material right away. Plenty of parking and easy to find their business.

I gave the box to them and I watched as they put all the papers into a very large shredding. It shredding the documents in a matter of minutes. Would have taken me hours on my shredder at home. They even accepted a coupon for 20% off that I found online. I would recommend them highly!

The customer service was so bad I left before completion of services. The lady at the counter was surly and argumentative. Communication was non-existent. Parking was difficult. Despite their advertising, appointments are needed for cross cutting - or so the argumentative young lady told me.

Took in three file boxes. There were two options. 1. you stay there and can watch as your items are shred. 2. you leave and are mailed certificates stating you items were shred. Very courteous and professional. As we were leaving they were already outside helping another customer. Definitely will use them again in the future!

Description of Work: I needed to shred close to 100 pounds of documents. I found a coupon on this company's web site and took everything to their location on Hancock Street. The gentleman who helped me was courteous and quickly unloaded my car of all the documents. The price charged was exactly what the email and estimates had stated. I was in and out of their facility quickly.

I had 2 boxes of old personal papers to shred. I have used Total Secure shredding before, and appreciated both the price, the expediency of the service, and mostly the fact that I can stand and watch all the papers being shred. This is the absolute best place to go if you have some shredding and want to make sure it is shred quickly. They are less expensive than any other place I have used or checked out. Appreciate the service.
Description of Work: Called ahead of time to see I could come in during the day, and yes, I did not need appointment. I went in, and someone was available to help right away. They took my boxes, even helped bring them in from the car, and I was able to watch all the papers being shred. It took less than 10 minutes.

I could not be more pleased than I am today with the shredding service Total Secure Shredding Inc. performed for me yesterday at my storage unit off Mission Gorge Road. I am in my 82nd year, and it is a big understatement for me to say those 74 boxes of old out-of-date office files were an albatross around my neck. I did know how to get rid of them because I can no longer lift heavy boxes of files. A month ago I decided to relocate up to the SFO Bay Area to be nearer family. But I had those damned files. Fortunately, I have hired a husband/wife duo of Professional Move Organizers, Kevin and Lynn Hall, from the company "Clutter-No-More." (see my review on Angie's list) who found this company for me. I made one call and the very able assistant set it up for the very next day. Kevin met the driver at the storage unit at the appointed time and in warp-speed the "albatross" was dispatched! Easy, fast, clean = PERFECT. And by the way, the service is a terrific value. and I did not have to lift a finger!! I am giving this company Angie's list straight 'A' s recommendation.
Description of Work: Company's truck came to my storage unit and picked up 74 boxes of old office files for shredding at their secure sight.

It was easy. I loved the website. It persuaded me, along with Angie's list, that this company is worthy of trust. We were offered the chance to watch the shredding process through a viewing window or simply to receive a certificate of destruction. I opted to have the certificate emailed and that was done promptly. The price was very low. Good experience.

It was pretty cheap. The paper they shredded was a relatively modest amount. They have a flat rate where you can bring in a certain measurement. It is pretty well defined on their website. I think it was one box for that flat rate and you can put in as much as you can in that box. I went to their place of business and they have a single location. When I walked in, I told them what I wanted, one of their personnel came and took it and asked if I wanted to watch while it was shredded. I watched them do it and I paid and I was done. It took less than 5 minutes. I was very happy with the service.
