2. Upfront Payment for Flexibility:
– Pay upfront for the service, allowing you to fill the containers at your own pace.

– When your sack(s) or bin is full, simply give us a ring. Our team promptly collects the filled containers, ensuring a hassle-free process.

– Filled containers are transported to our waste transfer station and securely stored. They are then transported to our off-site shredding service for complete confidentiality.
