  • Shredders

    For security and to protect your business, a shredder is a must in any home office or small office. A paper shredder can take all of your private contracts, tax documents, CDs, credit cards, and paperwork you no longer need and shred them into pieces for safe, secure disposal.

    Choosing a cross cut shredder vs a micro cut shredder

    Most small offices and homes make the choice between a micro cut shredder and a cross cut shredder. Both shredder styles will shred documents and more, but the way they cut is very different.

    A cross cut shredder shreds paper into cross cut sections that look like long strips, and it will then cut those strips into smaller strips. When the paper is cut this way, you’ll know there is no way to read or recover the documents you’ve shredded. The benefit to this type of shredder is how quickly it can shred documents and how long the device can work before needing to cool down. The only thing to keep in mind is that you’ll have a large amount of paper to dispose of.

    A micro-cut shredder has interlocking teeth to shred your documents, and because of that your paper or documents will be turned into confetti. The benefit to micro shredders is that they totally conceal your document information by rendering it into tiny pieces and you’ll have less paper to dispose of because of how tiny the pieces are. Just keep in mind that micro cut shredders don’t have the same output capacity at one time as a cross cut shredder.
