I started using AMS for document shredding and medical waste at the beginning of the year. We just built out a new medical office and I was looking for a change in vendors. I could not be happier. From start to finish, their team is professional, reliable, and incredibly responsive. Pickups are prompt, and their staff is courteous and well-trained; always paying attention to compliance and safety. I highly recommend AMS to any medical office or business looking for trustworthy, efficient, and friendly service.

Sam did a great job of gathering up our shredding. He was personable and explained the process thoroughly. I plan to ask for him to come for the next load of shredding!

AMS was pretty much perfect. Highly communicative and very precise in answering any questions I had. The pricing for a garage full of 20+ years worth of filing was far lower than previous quotes that we’d received. Will use this company over and over again.

We had a good experience at AMS for shredding our documents. The process was very easy and efficient. I appreciated that I was able to watch my documents being shredded on the video. It was great to see everything being handled securely. The staff was friendly and professional throughout the process. Highly recommend if you need a safe and secure shredding service.
