Did not know this about OfficeMax. I used our local recycling center and they had a minimum fee of $ 20.00 which seemed pretty high for my grocery bag of receipts. Then the guy took my bag and I could not actually see him shred the contents. This made me very uneasy. I was later told I could have donned a hard hat to watch the process.

Having just finished my taxes, I cleaned out my “finance” files and burned them, but I would like to do a whole lot more file cleaning – so I’m going to check with my local OfficeMax. I have a shredder that we use for everyday credit card offers, etc. but to sit and feed a couple bags of papers is far more than I want to do.

I am not fond of paying bills online, unless I am just really running late. Everyone is complaining about the price of postage… BUT, if it was used by everyone the cost wouldn’t keep going up. It seems sad to me that no one appreciates what they do almost everyday for us. It seems now all my event invites are digital as well as cards, letters, even some gift cards. It may come to the point that they shut down in areas or stop delivering on certain days! I sure don’t want to have to drive everyday to a central box in the middle of town to get my mail… Sorry for my little soap box moment, but I just don’t hear anyone talk about this and I believe it is a serious issue.

Anyway, that sounds like a really good service to have. I’ve always thought about buying a shredded but I’ve read about most having problems burning out, so I’ve never shelled out the money for one. I would definitely pay for that service to not have to deal with having a shredder take up the space in my home for minimal use.

I have a shredder and I use it often. It’s a wastebasket sized one and I empty it at least once a week. But this is changing because I have recently got my name off all of those lists that cause junk mail and things I don’t want. I’m still trying to get all of my bills where I don’t get statements but have found that my insurance company won’t do that with my EOB’s. I was bummed to hear that. I get pages per month because I get a page for every prescription or anything else I do. But I am happy to say that life is getting more and more decluttered. It feels good.

With all the credit card offers I get, I DO use it on at least a weekly basis… At least in the non-woodstove season

And as I don’t intend to work much longer, I’ll need it at home when I quit.

But in other areas, I am working on de-cluttering – at least a box a week of ‘clutter’ is going out of the house now – and it feels great!

I just take mine to work. Like you, I don’t have that much anymore, so it’s not worth having my own shredder. I keep a manilla envelope in my computer backpack, and when something needs to be shredded, I put it in there. Then every so often at work, I put it into the shredder.

Office Max is less than 1 mile from my house. For those living far away from one, I imagine it would be better to own your own. For me, I am determined to get rid of everything in my house I don’t use on an almost-daily, or at least weekly, basis.

For $5 at a garage sale, you can get a tiny/small shredder that is not as big as a small trash can and you have the convenience of not having to drive to Office Max – which is 80 miles away… etc…. In small towns there are no bigbox supply stores, so a shredder is still a good way to go. Besides that, I have a use for all the shreds myself….

The added benefit is that once shredded, the paper can go into the compost pile where it readily disintegrates. Or it is a good fire starter in the winter in the wood stove Or as packaging material for those out of town gifts I send to family. There is always a re-use for it

My shredder is not a giant machine – it is only 8 inches across, and 12 inches long, and about 18 inches high – smaller than a little trash can
