Neighborhood Parcel Announces Small Adjustment to Shredding Service Rates, Keeping Costs Among the Most Competitive in Boston, MA

BOSTON - Jan. 18, 2025 - PRLog -- "This decision was not made lightly," said Hanson Webb, CEO of Neighborhood Parcel. "We've held our rates steady since the day we launched this service in 2007, resisting the urge to follow market trends or pass on rising costs to our clients. But the reality is that the cost of doing business has gone up significantly, from inflation to operational expenses. This small adjustment is necessary to continue providing the secure, high-quality shredding services our clients rely on."

A Legacy of Transparency and Value
The original rate of $0.89 per pound has been a hallmark of Neighborhood Parcel's commitment to affordability. Even with the increase to $0.99 per pound, clients can rest assured that they are still receiving exceptional value. For comparison:

• Neighborhood Parcel: $0.99 per pound.
• UPS Store: $1.50+ per pound.
• Large Corporate Providers: Often exceed $1.75 per pound with additional hidden fees.

Why the Change Was Necessary

The decision to increase rates stems from several factors that have impacted operating costs in recent years:

• Inflation: Rising costs of labor, fuel, and materials have affected all industries.
• Operational Expenses: Upgrades to ensure continued compliance with federal regulations and enhanced security measures.
• Community-Centric Initiatives: Maintaining a locally owned, family-operated business that supports the community with jobs and services.

Despite these challenges, Neighborhood Parcel has absorbed these costs for years to protect its clients from financial strain. However, the latest economic pressures necessitated this modest increase to sustain operations without compromising quality or service.
