We are a small, local, Family Owned Business that has simplified the shredding game.
- Just $15 per standard bankers size box (12 x10x15). For clean ready to shred paper by appointment. (Additional fees apply if prep work or sorting is required before documents can be shred)
- Drop off 1 box or 100 we have you covered.
- No need to wait while we shred! Your documents will be stored in a triple locked secure area until they are safely destroyed.
Don’t have your documents in standard size bankers boxes?
Don’t worry, we can just weigh your documents in whatever container they are in and it’s just $1.00 per pound of shred for clean ready to shred paper. No need to transfer to boxes!
HOW IT WORKS:
- DROP OFF: By appointment Monday – Friday from 9am – 5pm. We are located in the State of California Building at 411 East Canon Perdido St, in Suite 15. There is a large parking lot on the mountain side of the building, and you can use the, side double door entrance to efficiently access our office which is just ahead in suite 15. Once you arrive, call us (805) 556-4000 and a member of the Santa Barbara Shredding Team will come meet you curb side to help unload your shred!
- PICK-UP: To schedule a pick-up at your home, office, or place of storage, give us a call at (805)-556-4000. Pickups will have a $25 Transportation fee within a 10 mile radius. We try to keep our transportation costs low and pass those savings on to you by using smaller hybrid electric vehicles to transport the shred back to our facility whenever possible and reserve using our large trucks for voluminous projects. Call us for a custom transportation quote for projects over 25 boxes.
WE DO NOT SHRED WHILE YOU WAIT: However we do store your records in a secure triple locked way until the shred process has been completed usually within a few days. What does triple locked mean?
- Your documents are transferred from the containers you provided to 95 gallon secure storage bins that are under a padlock with pass-code.
- Our locked bins are then stored in a locked storage room within our office with a keypad access locking door.
- Our entire office building is locked by Key when not in use.
