Most of the time a personal shredder is enough to take care of unwanted documents around the house, but not always. Maybe you\u2019re moving house and in the clean-up have found mountains of old documents. Or perhaps you work from home and your office looks like it was hit by a bomb full of paper binders, financial reports, and invoices.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Home Shredding Services<\/strong><\/p>\n Whatever the case, sometimes you have too many documents for a personal shredder. Since throwing your papers away as they are would put you at risk of identity theft, it\u2019s time to call a professional shredding service.<\/p>\n We take you through some advantages of hiring professional document shredding services, and how to prepare your documents once you do.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Advantages of Hiring Professionals<\/strong><\/p>\n Speed<\/strong><\/p>\n If you have a really hefty pile of papers to get through, a personal shredder is going to take an awfully long time. The most expensive models around get through 300 pages at a time, slowly. Cheaper models get through far less, overheat, and usually must be hand-fed documents.<\/p>\n Hiring a professional service means you can get on with moving house, or rearranging your office, without having to face hours and hours of mindless shredding.<\/p>\n Security<\/strong><\/p>\n Many retail shredders cut documents into wide strips that could be put back together fairly easily. While this won\u2019t be a problem for occasional shredded bills or letters, but a mass of poorly shredded documents sitting on your curb may well catch the eye of an identity thief.<\/p>\n Flexibility<\/strong><\/p>\n Whereas getting through the shredding yourself leaves you only one option \u2013 just keep shredding \u2013 a professional service gives you options.<\/p>\n You can have your papers taken care of at home with a mobile shredder that will have the job done in minutes or they can be securely transported to a facility for shredding.<\/p>\n Recycling<\/strong><\/p>\n Residential recycling bins are only so big, and you probably won\u2019t fit half a lifetime\u2019s documents into yours. But environmentally responsible document shredding services like ShredEasy are committed to recycling. They will transport the paper waste left after shredding to be recycled.<\/p>\n Document Preparation<\/strong><\/p>\n Preparing documents for shredding involves removing a lot of staples and paper clips, removing paper from plastic binders or boxed, and other fiddly, time-stealing tasks. A good shredding service will take care of all of this for you before destroying your documents.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
