However, the paper-shredding service is adequate at destroying documents and other information-storage devices.
When selecting a paper-shredding service, it is important to find one that is convenient and secure. One factor to look for is paper-shredding services that are certified by the National Association for Information Destruction (NAID). This group will certify and monitor the practices of some of the paper-shredding services around the nation. By selecting a NAID-certified company, you take one more step in ensuring the safety of your confidential information. This paper-shredding service is certified by NAID.
One of the options that this paper-shredding service does not offer is different shred sizes. It is not the most pivotal factor, but it is an option that some other services provide.
Getting a price quote on paper-shredding services can be difficult. The pricing structure is dependent upon a variety of factors including how much paper you need shredded, where you are located and how often you need a shredding job completed with this shredding company. To get a price quote from the paper-shredding service, you can go to its website and fill out a contact form. You'll enter basic information such as where you're located and how much paper you need shredded.
The price quote we obtained for a single shred was about $40 to $45. This price estimate was for about 30 pounds, or two boxes, of paper at a location in a metropolitan area. The paper-shredding service could come to your home or office and shred all the documents you need destroyed. You'll be given a box to load your paper into. The contents of that box will be deposited directly into the shredder and will be destroyed without anyone ever viewing or handling your documents.
The regularly scheduled paper-shredding service price was around $25 each visit. This price quote is based on a box of paper each week in a metropolitan area. The price will change based on how often you need the service and how much you need shredded. However, it can be scheduled for whatever type of interval you need.
Because this paper-shredding service also offers a variety of other solutions for small businesses, it makes it a great choice for combining services. It also offers destruction services for other information-storage devices, such as laptops and hard drives.
Getting a price quote can be difficult to arrange, so it is important to select a paper-shredding service with helpful customer support options. When we contacted the support representatives, it took a couple of days before we received a response.
Gilmore Shredding Services is a terrific option for packaging with other small-business solutions. Be sure to peruse its entire website and see what other services it can offer that you might need. However, the paper-shredding service on its own is adequate and will be helpful to small businesses and home customers alike.
