Very efficient in the service the company provides. From getting a quote for the job to the finish everything done very professionally.
I had the shredding done at my place of work and the two gentlemen who came to conduct the operation were very friendly and managed to shred ~790kgs in an hour!
I would recommend Total Shred Ltd and indeed have already done so by passing on the details to a friend.
Keep up the good work!
