Press Release Body: Paper shredders are used in a number of situations. Doctors,
dentists, and psychologists use them to protect their clients' private medical
information. Private citizens use them to destroy papers that contain important
financial information. Businesses use them to protect themselves from corporate
espionage and information theft. Paper shredders cost between $15 and $130,
depending on their features.

There are a large number of paper shredders on the market. The two main types are
strip cut and cross cut. Strip cut paper shredders slice the paper into thin
vertical ribbons. They are good in many situations, but they are not recommended for
people requiring maximum security. Cross cut paper shredders cut documents into tiny
bits of paper that are nearly impossible to reassemble. Cross cut paper shredders
are generally better than strip shredders for high security situations, but they are
also more expensive.

Another thing to consider when buying a paper shredder is how much it will be used.
Different paper shredders are built to handle different amounts of paper at a time
and to operate for different lengths of time before needing a break. It is important
not to use the paper shredder above the manufacturer's recommendations; if they are
overused or used improperly, they can burn out quickly.

Paper shredders can only be used for a certain amount of time before they need to be
rested. The length of time depends on the particular shredder. Most instruction
manuals that come with the shredders have this type of information. For example,
some top of the line models can work for 10 to 12 minutes before needing to be
turned off for 20 minutes. Other models can work for as little as two minutes at a
time before needing to be turned off for four minutes.

Another feature that differs between types of paper shredders is the number of
sheets that it can take at once. The "throat size," or size of the opening where the
paper is fed, varies between models. Some can handle up to 9 sheets at once, but
most can take about 5. It is recommended that people feed a little less than the
maximum in order to keep the machine working properly. Also, the dimensions of the
opening need to be considered. It is better not to have to fold a sheet of paper in
order to get it to fit into the shredder. Most shredders can accommodate sheets of
paper around 9 inches long. This is good for nearly all types of paper, and also
works for credit cards, checks, receipts, and other financial documents.
