Document destruction has become very important for all of us.  Legislation and responsibility to customers/clients has changed the way we are able to properly dispose of information. There are many things to consider when purchasing a paper shredder and all the variables can seem overwhelming.  After all, the privacy of your information and the privacy of your clients is at stake so it’s important to make the right selection.  With sheet capacity, motor size, what kind of media you are going to shred (paper, credit cards, CD/DVD) and waste volume to consider, the following questions will help you narrow down your selection to only a few models.  Also, you should be aware that there is a difference in how shredders are constructed.  Just like other vendors, we also carry shredders from other manufacturers in our general line catalog, but we do not believe they are anywhere near as good.  Click here to see the difference. While making a selection, it’s important to remember that your shredding volume will increase with time, so be sure to factor in growth when making a decision.  Complete our Destruction Needs Form to provide information so that we may personally assist you with determining what shredder will best suit your needs.
