How Much Does One-time Shredding Cost?
While rates differ by provider and location, choosing a mobile shredding provider costs an average of $130-$175 for 1-10 boxes of paper. Opting for an offsite shredding provider can cost an average of $110-130 for 1-10 boxes. The final cost of your one-time shredding project depends on a few factors — quantity, location, service type, and any additional services you choose include.
The more paper you have to shred, the lower the cost tends to be (again, depending on the provider). The distance the shredding provider must travel to reach you can also impact cost. The type of service you choose also plays a part, as do any extra services you add on.
