Highland Shredding & Removal

Highland Shredding & Removal is a Woburn document-shredding and junk-removal outfit that Google rates 5 stars across 481 ratings, part of a 396-review record running back to 2021 that repeats the same story with unusual consistency: fast, courteous crews and a quote from owner Dana that shows up quickly. The specifics back up the reputation. One customer had 50 boxes of files shredded in 20 minutes; another had 25 boxes of old files cleared out along with furniture and miscellaneous items at what they called very fair pricing. In an April 2026 review, someone destroying 85 boxes of old veterinary records called the process straightforward and cheaper than Shred-It. The crew names recur across years of reviews — Dana handling estimates and scheduling, with Steve, Josh, John, Felipe, Lester and Zach doing the on-site work — and several customers describe using Highland repeatedly, including a professional organizer who calls them her regular vendor for estate cleanouts. Pricing comes up unprompted and favorably: reviewers describe quotes landing at or below the original estimate, with no hidden fees added on site. Recent activity has held steady at that level — 63 reviews in the last six months, none negative. Good fit for a shredding job of any size — a home office cleanout, an estate's paperwork, a business's confidential files — or a junk haul that comes bundled with it. Same-day or near-term availability shows up often in reviews but isn't something to count on; worth asking when booking.
