Red Dog Shred - Shredding - Shredding Services Near Me - San Jose, California

Dishonest. Misleading Went to get 8.5 boxes of documents shredded because of an office move. I had called and mentioned the $10/box price shown on yelp. The guy was vague but left me believing that was the price (carefully worded so that I didn't pick up on the misleading words). They have a guy in the parking lot waiving arriving customers to a shredding truck where they take your documents and start to shred them before you go to the office. They don't tell you the price until you get to the office - after they have your documents out of the boxes and in the shredder. Surprise! its a higher price! They hide behind the price lists on yelp (showing $10/box) and are vague if you call them and mention the yelp price - but they charge $15/box. Unfortunately, its too late to say "wait a minute" about the price because they already have your documents and hand you a bill for the higher price and point at the price sheet in the office. I was tempted to just walk away without paying, but it wasn't worth the hassle. read more

Went up to the window because I thought I was supposed to go the old man with glasses was kind of rude and sent me to the truck. I am 73 years old, I carried 3 paper grocery bags by myself, one of the bags was about 1/2 full. I swear I had one bankers box full of documents. When I gave the guy outside by the truck, the bags he put 11/2 on the piece of scrap paper. The old man charged me $23.00. It was 99 degrees outside and I didn't want to rile up the grouchy old man so I just gave $23 to him and he gave me the actual change I was a little worried he would keep all the money. I feel cheated and will never go back there again. I will also tell everyone I know that I was overcharged at Red Dog Shredding. They need to have their signage be accurate and have accurate signage at the truck read more

Fast efficient and fairly cheap. Was in and out under 5 minutes and witnessed my documents being shredded.

Service is always quick & it's not a place to dilly dally. Prices perfect for residential customers compared to those like me who have used industrial shredding companies. You will never be disappointed! read more

This was such an easy and convenient way to shred documents. You drive up (there are big trucks in the parking lot and then they also have a brick and mortar store). Someone will take the boxes from your car and dump them into the truck. They will give you a paper that shows how many boxes you had. You walk up to the store and pay. Easy! The employees were very nice and I thought the prices were reasonable. I'd definitely go back and recommend this business. read more

Service with a smile! And the convenience of just dropping it off and watching it shred right in front of your eyes. Very convenient because you just drive your car up to the shredding truck and they estimate your stuff. Then you pay and leave. read more

Fast , easy, economical and they let you watch your stuff get shredded in front of t if you for peace of mind.

After finding Red dog it was a breeze. Directions on yelp were wrong. Finally, called them to find out where they are.

Big shout out to Red Dog Shred. I usually come here once a year to shred my accumulated paper and any other e-waste I have. They are always so efficient and friendly. And while I get that no one wants to spend extra money to shred paper or dispose of other electronic items, the peace of mind that ensuring these items are disposed of securely, the excellent service, and reasonable pricing make it totally worth it. read more

Brought my hard drives to Red Dog Shred, the service is fast, easy and secure. I'll be back with other items that need to be shredded.

First such place that does not charge an arm and a leg for shredding services and one of the few that also allow you to watch the materials being shredded right then and there! Highly recommended! read more

They made it extremely easy to shred sensitive documents. I didn't even have to remove the staples. It was shredded in literally minutes. You can even watch it shred! read more

A simple service, but a wonderful one. Drive up to one of the two big shredding trucks, and a helpful person will dump your shredding into a big plastic bin. That bin gets pulled up inside the truck where your papers are shredded immediately. The location is convenient if you are in San Jose, in the middle of a small shopping center. This is the best deal for shredding anywhere other than using your home machine. Most places charge by the pound and a bankers box is typically $25 or $30 or more. Red Dog charges $12 per single bankers box, or $24 for a double bankers box. I own a good shredder, but at these prices, it didn't make sense for me to do it myself, as I estimate it would have taken at least 90 minutes to shred my two boxes. Other prices: $15 to shred a hard drive. Tapes and CD's: $25 per box. They also do E-waste recycling. Note: they don't take pre-shredded materials. read more

Red Dog Shred - Price list as of May 2024. - Shredding Services Near Me - San Jose, California

Recommend this place! Very fast and convenient. They provide good service with reasonable price.

Quick and easy! We had bags and bags of documents to shred as we cleared out our parents' house. Just drop by, give them the bags and watch them get shredded right there. You get a ticket and walk to the window in the nearby building to pay. Quick, easy and efficient! Keep X-rays and large photos separate from papers and hand THOSE in at the window. Great, convenient service! read more

For a bankers box of documents, only $20. The time saved and the value with just passing along the box to the employee and they'll shred the documents immediately, is unmatched. Quick, easy, cheap and beats sitting in front of my old personal shredder, shredding a handful of documents at a time! read more

Wow! Super friendly, efficient and helpful. Great customer service and so easy. Inexpensive and will definitely come again!

They are quick and the price is very reasonable. I love the staff- working hard even when it 103 degrees out. I recommend them Marty L read more

Super convenient shredding service. Okay pricing. You see you stuff go into the shredder, so security is as good as you could hope for. The guy at the shredder is fast & enthusiastic. Pricing is sort of eyeballing the volume, but everyone has to pay the rent. read more

Fast, friendly, well-priced. Have used them twice and will definitely do so again. I like that you can see your papers shredded! They also manage other things like hard drives. Haven't done that yet, but I will. read more

I loved that I could take any number of boxes. All the other shops have a high minimum $$ spend. And let me say, the women running the place was a delight read more

Awesome, quick service! Easy in and out. Much easier then shedding at home with a small machine. Found this place after our daughter wore out the motor on our small home machine lol. read more

Excellent! Had 1 box of documents that needed to be shredded. Pulled into the driveway via the back alley off of Curtner, dumped my docs into a large bin, the man gave me a receipt, and then I walked around the building to the office and paid my 10 bucks via credit card. Done! The cost to shred at UPS is 89 cents per pound and their website wants you to make an appointment. My box of docs weighed more than 20 pounds. Red Dog Shred provided a more convenient service at a much cheaper price than UPS. read more

Red Dog Shred is now located at the corner of Camden and Union in San Jose. They did an excellent service to shred all my documents immediately and I could verify. Great value pricing too. When you enter the parking lot, look for the big Red Dog Shred truck(s) and that is their location. read more

If you have a lot of items that need to be shred you can't beat Red Dog. They have a very good value deal with a banker's box. You fill it up to whatever it will hold and then you bring it in and for a flat rate they will shred it right in front of you. I had a quite a bit of items and they were so nice to me. He made sure that I witnessed him putting it into the machine and that it was shredded. Everyone there was very friendly and seemed to reallying want to help me. Another great thing about Red Dog its a drive-thru operation where you basically go through, stop the car, get out with your items and watch it get shred. Now this is being done due to covid because I've been there before and usually you park and then go inside the building. I do not know if they're going to go back to that way but either way it's excellent! I Highly Recommend Red Dog. read more

They have moved to a new location. They are now located in the Cambrian Park Plaza (strip mall with the Carousel signage - corner of Union/Camden). Access is so much easier. Still the same routine; drive up, unload your file box content into a giant bin wheeled over by super cheerful/helpful staff. Bin content gets dumped into a giant diesel powered shredder. Walk 10 paces to the cashier and pay. We have been using their services for over 15 yrs. Cannot beat the $ even with the price increase. Especially when you have box loads of old records to be destroyed. Simple math really, a continuously operated crosscut shredder is at least $1500; not to mention the time cost for staff or yourself to feed 25-30pgs at a time and emptying the shredded trash. That would be the equivalent of 150 file boxes at Red Dog in less than 10 min and no papercuts. read more

Super simple, you enter on the Curtner Ave side and just follow the signs till you hit the open dates/driveway. I was quite surprise that there was a line but it wasn't too bad. I say if you plan on coming here on a Saturday around 1-2pm, give yourself at least a 30 min window just in case. Basically a staff member will come by your car and signal you that it is your turn and they help you unload the paper! Also, they only accept manilla folders. (no color ones) The price is $8 per box. For E-Waste, I have attached a picture for you to check out. read more

In the process of helping our 93 year old dad clean up his house..... which includes dealing with boxes and boxes of paperwork..... such as pg&e bills back the the 80's. Oh yes..... he keeps everything. Additionally, several old computers, laptops, TVs...... oh it goes on and on. We don't live here, o the clean up is done in stages..... and I don't know what I'd have done without Red Dog. Friendly, efficient, and I think the value is truly there. They offer great customer service...... actually answering the phone when I first called with questions. The process is simple..... pull up next to the truck..... and the kind man will go to work. After everything is done, he'll hand you a little slip which you take to the office, which is right there. Pay the bill, I used credit card, and boom.... You're on your way. The woman running the office and payments is very kind and nice also. We like Red Dog..... and have recommended to others, who also now are dedicated customers. So we say..... two thumbs up..... or in our case.... A big ole Shaka! read more

Red Dog is located in a very convenient location. I pulled up with three boxes of paper to shred, and the person handling the shredding directed me into a parking spot, took my boxes, and began shredding immediately. I did not have to worry about my private information sitting around unprotected. I proceeded to a window to render payment, which was very reasonable, and was out in less than ten minutes. They are friendly, helpful, efficient, and convenient. I highly recommend Red Dog! read more
