Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Efficient and easy

Very easy to order. I needed to dispose of several years' worth of business papers, following my retirement. The bags are a good size - I ordered 6. Prompt collection of the bags for disposal - I contacted the company on Friday and received a quick reply confirming collection the following Monday. The guy collecting was very friendly. Very efficient service throughout. I will use them again

Great service

Great service

I needed old business materials shredding - found The Hill Company online. They talked me through the process and it took just a few days to get the sacks to me, fill them and arrange collection. So all round excellence.

Excellent service

I have used this company to get rid of confidential documents and the service was excellent. I was impressed from the beginning when I initially had problems booking my order. They replied quickly telling me what to do. They picked up my sacks on the date given and during the time slot.They have also collected my unused sacks and refunded me. I would recommend to family and friends.

Friendly service, fast delivery of shredding bags. Would be nice to be able to do all online, especially for adhoc customers like myself.
