As instructed on the drop off page of their website I called them to tell them of my drop off. First, I called in the morning to establish my understanding. The woman who answered confirmed my information and I was told to call when I was close, which I did. In my second call, ten minutes away, I was given directions and to go to door #7 not clearly marked). I was also informed, for the first time, that they did not take credit cards for drop offs. This meant I had to go get cash. As I arrived, one of their trucks was pulling in. He wanted to get into the bay of the garage. I asked him about drop off and he said he would call. This guy was very helpful and friendly, he entered the building, which clearly had credit card indicators on the door. If not for drop offs, for whom, as pickups would not see the door? Once I emptied my documents into the barrel, the truck driver emptied the barrel into the truck shredder. I don't think they have an on-site shredder, maybe just truck based. He took mt money, but then had to go looking for change. I only had twenties, as I was not expecting a cash exchange. So, good price, nice guy, got my shredding done, but it seemed a bit haphazard. Could work on processes.

A+ all the way around.

I immediately emailed BBP, and get a response saying to send them a photo of what I received, which I did. They said they will get with their production team and find out what went wrong. A few days later after following up with them a few times, I get a response saying I have something called "overprint" turned on, so I will need to have my files fixed. Remember my proof came out 100% correct when I uploaded it! I have no clue what "overprint" is nor should I need to, as I uploaded my file, as I'm expected to, and approved that it was correct, which is was. They should not have an upload, view, and approve process that shows me my image is correct and then blame me when something goes wrong on their end when they actually print the file! This company has taken my money, put me behind on my schedule, and frustrated me beyond imagination. I honestly cannot believe a company would do this to anyone.

I know how important it is to properly dispose of sensitive documents, but I hate shredding. The mess, the constant jamming, and the time it takes sometimes makes it feel like it's more hassle that it's worth. That's where Shred a Box comes in. I keep one of their boxes in my home office, toss everything in there and then when it's full, schedule a pick up and send my box on its merry way to be destroyed. It really doesn't get any easier than that! read more

Bob Ferrick gave us a competitive quote and stuck to it! Then the actual work itself.
