We have a range of cut options depending on the sensitivity of the documents you need to destroy. Micro-cut shredders offer the highest level of security, while cross-cut and mini-cut come in at a close second and third. Strip-cut offers the lowest security and works best for use at home. Office Choice offers options between P-1 (lowest security) and P-7 (highest security).
Keep both sheet and bin capacity in mind to ensure efficient and convenient shredding. If you go through a lot of sheets, opt for a higher loading capacity along with a larger bin to reduce emptying time.
You want to ensure that there are efficient safety settings in place to prevent accidents and overheating. Some of our models come with a sensor to alert the user when it's overheating or if something is jammed. This will also ensure the longevity of the device by ensuring proper use.
Other features like auto feed or jam protection are best to look out for when looking for a shredder for daily use. These will come in handy when you're going through reams of paper and need to get the job done quickly.
Bin sizes vary across all of our options. So make sure you find one that has an optimal bin size that matches your daily requirements so you don’t have to keep swapping out bin bags.

FAQs
What Types of Paper Shredders Are Available at Office Choice?
At Office Choice, we offer the following types of paper cutters across different brands:
Micro cut shredders are perfect for destroying private or personal documents. Also known as the security-cut shredder, these machines cut paper from both corners of the page diagonally. The cuts lead to extremely small, square-shaped pieces, making them impossible to read.
Ideal for those who want to securely shred sensitive documents, cross cut shredders offer more variety when it comes to shredding. Make sure to check the product description to know exactly which security level our shredders offer. Since these tend to cut the paper into smaller pieces, there are also fewer bag changes with every session.
Shred high volumes of paper automatically with these shredders. Simply feed the paper and complete another task while the machine does all the shredding for you. Most of our auto feeder options also come with a manual setting, so you can switch between the two if you’d prefer.
Ideal for maximum security, these shredders have a shred size of 7mm. With some of our options offering 100% jam-proof technology, you can easily shed hundreds of sheets of paper in no time with this office shredder.

Can Paper Shredders Handle Materials Other Than Paper?
Yes, some office shredders can handle items like credit cards, paper clips, and staples. However, not all shredders are equipped for these, and models vary in their capabilities. For safety, avoid shredding laminated paper, stapled documents (unless specified by the shredder model), hard drives, cardboard, and electrical products

This type of cut makes it impossible to retrieve information back from the shredding machine.
