Common Questions About Paper Shredding and Recycling
Is it better to recycle paper or shred it?
This is a common question, and the answer depends on the nature of the documents. For sensitive documents containing personal or confidential information, shredding is the best option. Shredding ensures that the information is destroyed and cannot be reconstructed. Once shredded, the paper can then be recycled, turning a security measure into an environmentally friendly action. For non-sensitive paper waste, direct recycling is sufficient.
What products are made from the paper Shred Bull recycles?
The paper we recycle at Shred Bull is repurposed into various new paper products, contributing to the circular economy. Some of the most common products made from recycled paper include toilet paper and paper towels. These everyday items highlight the practical and sustainable benefits of recycling paper.
A Good Rule of Thumb for Shredding
A good rule of thumb is to only shred paper containing sensitive information. Here are some examples of things that should be shredded:
- Employee pay stubs
- Bank statements
- Investment transactions
- Pre-approved credit card applications
- Medical records
- Tax forms
- Anything with your social security number
- Anything with your credit card number
