The company’s name is American Document Destruction and they are located at 10600 Kahlmeyer Dr in St. Louis (63132). Their phone number is 314-423-8388. If you have 10 or more boxes of shredding and you bring them to their location, it’s FREE. If you have under 10 boxes, there is a flat fee of $5.00. You are welcome to watch them destroy your documents. My colleague says she has always found the employees there to be nice and hospitable.
