Things To Consider When Purchasing a Departmental Shredder

We have compiled some items to aid you in selecting a shredder for your business. By using this list in conjunction with our departmental shredder comparison chart, making this decision should be as easy as disposing of unwanted papers with one of our machines. 
  • Do you need or prefer a type of cut? Our shredders offer strip or cross-cuts. 
  • Would your business benefit from a larger shredder? How much material do you shred in a given period? Perhaps you need something with more speed or a higher sheet capacity to speed up the process. 
  • Shredders produce a significant amount of waste. The amount is noted per model on the chart. How often do you plan on disposing of the waste? Is the amount of waste you produce important to your company? 
  • Do you want to reduce your material to a specific size? Our shredders operate in different shred sizes. Make sure you select one that fits the specifications you require. 
  • To ensure your material shredding process runs smoothly, you want to select a machine with a speed that will maintain your workplace’s efficiency. The chart lists each model’s feet per minute. 
If you’ve determined that a shredder of this size makes sense for your company’s needs, then we highly suggest that you look into the individual models you’re interested in by clicking on the model number. Please feel free to reach out and contact us with any questions.
