Shred Works - 1 years worth of junk mail. - Recycling Center Near Me - San Leandro, California

Got there and was told, first thing, "our prices have changed" and I say... to what? and he says "$25 minimum" and we both look at the small bag of paper I have and I say "$25 for this?" and he says "yep"... and I leave. Really annoying. It would take, what, 20 seconds to throw it in the shredder? That's what it took last time I showed up with a banker box full and it was waaaay less than $25. read more

1) Easy to schedule a mobile appointment at our office 2) showed up on time 3) shredded all documents and hard drives. Couldn't be more satisfied. Highly recommend. read more

I dropped by and had to wait for quite a bit until someone came by with the grey garbage bin. I only had 2 paper bags worth of documents,bills and letters to be shredded and a laptop that is from 2005. He took my things in the back and gave me a bill of $5. I asked if I can watch my things get shredded and he said it's probably done. There's a tv in the waiting room that wasn't turned on. And it took time for the tv to warm up. He said it's done with shredding. I said I wanted to see my laptop get smashed (because I didn't clear any data. My fault. But the Apple laptop doesn't work anymore but still has the hard drive disk). He said it gets broken down for e-waste. I am very concern of stuff I have there. But don't want to make a scene. I hope no one steals my info. Just wanted some reassurance, that's why I gave it one star less. read more

This is an A+ company. I booked on-site shredding at our storage unit. I was given a 3 hour window and they committed to call me 30 minutes before arrival so I didn't have to wait since it was not at my home. I contacted them via their on line "request a quote". It arrived very quickly and was good for 30 days. I called to book the appointment and the representative was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. On the day of my appointment I received a call from Angel that he was on his way and would arrive in 30 minutes. Almost 30 minutes on the dot he drove up. While I had organized the boxes, they had been in storage for years so not in the best condition. Angel quickly got to work pouring out the contents into a large bin. He removed any plastic bags and put the boxes to the side. A couple boxes had mouse droppings but he was not at all fazed. Within 30 - 40 minutes he had shredded the contents of 25 banker boxes. The old empty boxes were stacked back in the storage unit (they don't shred boxes) , he processed my payment using his phone and went on his way. Fast, easy and very convenient. I highly recommend them. Plus the price was very reasonable too. read more

Very friendly straight forward. As a professional organizer this is now my Hinton place to send my clients shredding. Local & family run

Fast, friendly, and cheap shedding. Ask your friends if they have piles of shredding to do and add it to yours. Shredding is one of those chores that people put off for years. Friends are grateful when you take the clutter out of their houses and lives. This is an easy good deed to do. read more

Great, fast, efficient. They help guide you and very good or close to estimating what you need for the day of. The guy that came was also very nice and courteous. read more

Shred works is the place to go if you have a lot of shredding to do. The people are very friendly and Gustavo especially helped me quite a bit. I'm sure they are just doing their job but it's nice to go to a place where people greet and smile at you. The only thing he forgot was to give me my banker boxes back but I will have to go by tomorrow and see if they still have them. read more

Incredible service from start to finish. I received my quote in 2 mins tops (for I was multitasking) and Tina provided exceptional service! I was beyond joy with the quote and booked services for next day. Saul called me to tell me he was on his way and was so patient with us when he arrived and worked with us. He was efficient and made it easy for us. I was beyond impressed. I have more papers to shred and will be using their services real soon. Thanks for making my experience one to remember. Highly recommend! A +!! read more

I have to take the time to give a review of this fabulous company. Today is Thursday and I was desperate and stressed trying to find a residential shred company at the last minute. I spoke to Diablo paper shredding (Sal) he didn't have availability but he didn't want to just leave me hanging out there so he told me to call Shred-works they are pretty accommodating. I followed Sal's suggestion and called Shred works. A very nice lady named Tina answered she could hear the urgency in my voice. She said she really wants to help me out but Hayward shredding with them are on Weds but she will call to try to get me added to the schedule. Tina is a power-box of hope. She never once showed me negative ways. Tina is a ray of sunshine and a pleasure to speak with. About an hour after speaking with Tina the shred truck arrived. They made it happen stress free thanks to Tina. I am a firm believer that you do not get a second chance to make a first impression. That being said Tina and Sal has placed a positive memory of their customer service in my head that I will remember for ever. Tina made me feel important to the company. She has the smile in her voice. I will use/recommend both companies whenever the need arise. Thank you Tina and Sal for going above and beyond my expectations. read more

This was a good experience. I took four large boxes of paper and files to their business location. They were shredded as I watch. Fast. Easy. Inexpensive. I recommend them! read more

Incredibly professional, prompt, helpful & reasonably priced. I couldn't be more pleased with their in-home shredding service as I was moving/ downsizing & needed to carefully dispose of many boxes of old financial records. So happy to have found them & highly recommend. read more

This review is entirely for their pick up and the customer service associated with it. I routinely have an issue getting a response back from these guys. Their associate's emails aren't covered when they go on vacation thus sometimes you won't hear from them for a week or so after your message is sent. The first time we received a pick up the driver neglected to take the check with him thus we ended up having to both send it and then deal with the song and dance of getting a bill and calling 3 or 4 times over several weeks before they finally cleared the check. The guys who picked up the boxes each time were friendly and quick and I have no complaints as to the actual pickup. The service though in getting the items picked up, that however needs some work. ******* Edit 6/13/13 I have since moved on to another position, but the last few times my previous company used their services we requested they make sure to pick up the check onsite and I would email Greg himself if the was any lag time in response. All in all, I hope my old company continues using them as they really did address the problems mentioned in the review. read more

Very easy to booked and arranged my pick up service, price is very reasonable, the person who picked up was friendly and helpful. had 21 banker boxes of papers that need to be safely shredded, will use them again next time! read more

A little challenging to reach during morning or afternoon, or evening traffic, but worth taking all that unwanted, 10 year old stack of paper to the shredder. They make it easy. I wanted to watch it shred, and I did. However, next time, I will take a face mask. The fine paper shreds floating around that place can be challenging to the air quality. Stay safe! read more

Come the holidays, we're egged to splurge, but after that splurge, may I suggest a purge. Hello, I'm not Dr. Seuss. Onward. There finally came a day when my cluttered closets' protests for freedom were heard. Circumstances and an ex-coworker's evangelical persuasions of the liberating joys of de-cluttering set me to purge. And, I mean PURGE. I realized in the process I had five computers I had just moved from apartment to apartment because I didn't know how to dispose of them. (Not sharing any dates, but the oldest ran on 40 mB ram. Shhh.) Old CDs, ZIP drives, unused cables -- cartons of 'em. Single-use items like glass punch barrels and oversized wooden salad bowls were heaped in. And, a ridiculous amount of cardboard boxes with bills and outdated tax forms dating back to the last century. What I could, I gathered and donated to Salvation Army and Out of the Closet. What was left, I took to Shred Works. And, they made it so easy, it made me wish I started long ago. Carload #1 was the papers. Shred Works charged a surprisingly low fee for their disposal (so low, I didn't rate $$-wise for the Yelp discount). Trip #2 was for the computers and cables. And final trip #3 was for all the other computer accessories and batteries. It's important to share that #2 and #3 were E-cycling, for which Shred Works charges ZERO $. That includes the destruction of your hard drives (there's a minimal fee if you want to see them destroyed live, if you tread cautiously in the cyber realm.) They offer pick-up services as well, but for what I had, visiting them was easy. Seriously, they made it a snap. Friendly, helpful staff willing to lug your heavy items from car to oblivion. An extra bonus: Wish I had a pic to share, but take a peak inside their warehouse. Shredded paper bales piled side by side in stacks of epic heights. It's like some futuristic cityscape. For yourself, and for the environment, I can't recommend the folks and services of Shred Works enough. If not today, perhaps as a New Years resolution? Open Saturday as well as M-F read more

Call them before you waste your time to travel there. They change prices and policies without notice. Prices too high for small quantities. Not worth it. read more

When another "Shed-it" company will be nameless couldn't step up to their agreement. Shred Works was to the rescue ! For my work I needed to quardinate 80 large banker boxes to be shreded. I had made set up a day for another company to do this work on a Thursday. All my boxes where nicely in a bay area ready for the pick up that morning. When I call to confirm they said "We have truck issue and couldn't be out till Monday" OMG.... I called a few different places ... then called Shred Works !! I need this done like today. The nice gentelman James was extremely cooprative and would make some call to see if this could be done today. He called me back within 20 minutes. I love a company that has that CAN DO ATTITUDE ! James made this happen for me. My truck pick up was here within 2 hours to pick up my bulk 80 boxes. The Young man Doante was my driver and mover. He was very nice, experienced and has the most excellent customer service. Shred works you have a great emplyee right here. With in 15-20 minutes my boxes where loaded up, As a courtesy they even took some old printers we had. !!! My invoice was faxes over... the bill was paid... and all my worries are gone. I seriously recommend Shred Works for any company, or just person that needs bulk items to be shreded. Price was they are very cheep. I had called around and other places where trying to charge a $125 just to come out. Not here they just charged my per box. Thanks you From Da-Les Auto Body read more

Used them for shredding service. Tried calling but both numbers kept giving me a busy signal. Shredding was piling up. Went with another company because couldn't reach anyone at Shred Works. Called to have them pick up their bin. Was kept holding over ten minutes. Tried e-mailing customer service. Been about a week and no reply. They rectified the situation and resolved my inquiries. Even though I've gone with a different company, I'd say they get the job done. Word to management at Shred Works: 1. When conducting company-wide phone updates, ensure calls are routed to a dispatch. 2. Indicate on your website your phone difficulties. That way, in cases like mine, we don't panic because we're not getting through to anyone. 3. Notify customers in advance that phone systems will be down via e-mail 4. It can happen to any good company, but the phone is key to ensuring the continued health and growth of the company. 5. May you experience good success. read more

Excellent service! They run a very efficient operation and they even take e-waste! The prices are very fair. Best time to come is in the morning if you're just dropping off. There's a big TV screen in the waiting area where you can watch them shred your stuff, too! read more

Closer and more convenient than Berkeley! I drove up....popped the trunk, grabbed my large garbage bag...it was put on the conveyor belt.... and it was gone in a flash. Gave him my $5 and drove off! Til the next time..... read more

Not a lot to say. Drive in. Give them my stuff. They shred it in front of me. Give me my box back. Pay $7/box. Get receipt. Drive out. Because of them, gave my shredder away. read more

I recently used Shred Works to help clean out some confidential documents for my small business. Our schedule was very difficult because we were trying to move and dealing with a lot of conflicts. Raquel was a tremendous help and made it work for us. Shred Works also charged a lot less than ShredIt when we were pricing services out. The gentleman who came to our office for the pickup was very pleasant, professional, and, as an added bonus, took away our pile of e-waste that we needed to deal with, at no additional charge. We would highly recommend Shred Works and would definitely use them again. read more

I found them after calling our usual shredding service, Shred It, and having the guy literally laugh in my face when I said I needed shredding the next day. Thankfully the next place I called was Shred Works. Jim was great, he fit me in and they cost less!!!!! Boy I am glad now I got terrible service with the other guys :) read more

Liked the Sat shred hours and cheap. About $7 .. Thanks for letting me watch my paper shred. Very friendly and clean! read more

Hi, I just wanted to stop by and leave my experience with this company. I had them come to my home in Oakland to cleanup my garage. They showed up ontime they took away everything i asked. They were carefull not to damage my other stuff in there and they cleaned up everything. I had a great experience with their work. I will hire them again. Thanks guys! read more

Efficient, Prompt, Friendly This is my 2nd time using Shred Works--the first was when the moving company I hired offered their services as part of my contract. This time was of my own accord! I worked with Mitch Ambro, sales representative. He made the process simple and fast. The bin was delivered on time and collected on time as well--by Gary, the sweetest agent! I provided my credit card information upon placing the order, and as soon as the bin was collected the statement was immediately delivered--and it was correct. All in order. It's been a looooong time since I've worked with a service that efficient, prompt and friendly. I look forward to an ongoing relationship with Shred Works for all my paper disposal needs! Thanks Mitch and Gary! read more

The service was great, I just pulled in with the boxes in the back of my car, they sent someone out to get them, I went to pay, and then I was gone. I was done in a few minutes, and they had a Yelp discount, that helped, too. Thanks read more

not yet able to comment on all but response time was spot on. Fast!

100+ pounds for 19 bucks. The guy pushed a recycle bin next to my car and unloaded a few boxes from my trunk. Total time -- less than 15 minutes. read more

I had several boxes of old payroll documents, business checks, receipts, as well as personal financial statements that I needed shredded. The cross cut, 3 pages at a time home shredder just did not cut it, so to speak. Found Shred Works on Yelp and appreciated all the excellent reviews. There was also a $10 for $20 coupon purchase available which I took advantage of. When I arrived at Shred Works the process was easy and convenient. I only wish that I could have watched my documents and receipts shredded in person instead of via a video camera feed. They did however provide me with a receipt verifying that all my documents were destroyed. Will use them again whenever I accumulate too much sensitive paperwork that will overload the home shredder. read more

Came early, professional personable great job!! Good prices also. Thanks, Lois read more

OK, these guys are great! Specially if you work for a larger company or even a non-profit. They took 9 pallets of software products and worked with us to meet our last minute time frame.(Whew!) I need to mention Kyle, who was not only a complete professional, but was genuinely friendly and dare I say, one cool kat! Quick and efficient service. read more

I took a box full of paperwork today for shredding. I couldn't use the deal I purchased cause I only had one box so needed to use a card to pay. The representative led me to the back, leaving my box full of personal information in the lobby with another customer. I realized after we walked through the door that I should've brought my box with me in order to keep my information secure but I didn't. my personal information was left in a very open, unsecured environment with a strange person in the room. Not okay with me. Not likely to ever go back. I hope I can get a refund on the deal I purchased. read more

I had several boxes of papers that needed to be shredded. One of those "get around to it" projects. I found Shred Works as listed near me. The process was efficient and the employees' gave great customer service. I was in and out in about 15 min. I will definitely use them again. read more

I went here via reviews on Yelp and a great experience. I had some very confidential data from work I needed to get rid of and they allow you to watch and shred. I will be coming here all the time. read more

Made my life so much easier. Excellent service nice people. Thank you. I highly recommend this place and will be going back when needed.

I always use Shred Works to shred my personal documents. My trip to Shred Works was no different today. I was greeted when I got out of my car & was offered assistance with getting my documents out of the trunk of my car. The only downfall is that they are no longer open on Saturday's but that wasn't enough of a reason for me to decrease the numbers of stars given. read more
