I inherited a basement full of documents when my parents passed away. No other shredding service was able to help because it was in the basement. I am very grateful for Hanson’s help and cooperation. He came in and helped us clean our basement. The service was on time, the crew was very friendly, and the best part — it was affordable. Now we are ready to list our house for sale.
