  The shredders you can get at the local office supply store are a waste of money. They are built cheaply and only handle a very limited volume. As witnessed by your friend taking them back repeatedly. Then end result is the shredding is not done. If you want to protect your information then your two choices are to 1) waste your time and money on slow shredders that need to be replaced or 2) save time and money and hire a shredding service.

  Why not follow some even more basic practices like physically securing the secrets and shredding documents so they don't end up in the trash.

  I cost more in two ways: 1) Immediate costs: Lets assume you have a small office with 5 employees who spend 3 minutes a day shredding. In an avearage month this will represent 5.25 hours of work. If they make a modest $16 an hour (I will let you add in your own overhead). The labor is $84 alone. Now add in the cost of a medium sized shredder, the annual replacementwhen it freezes, maintence and disposal costs. Your monthly shredding costs are closer to $100. Compare that with a service that will do the same job for less than $50. The larger the office, the greater the savings. 2) Eventual costs: shredding is a boring task usually given to a low level employee. (The same employees that are least relable.) In many cases the documents are simply thrown into the trash. Some examples from the last month alone include: Walter Reed, Ohio DMV, City of Converse and Waxahachie High School. But the grandaddy of all is PG&E who had a low level employee who fail to shred and it cost the company a twenty eight billion dollar settlement.

  It is clear that you know very little, if anything, about the sites you recommend. Perhaps some more research would have helped.

  Many companies shred to stay in compliance with privacy laws like HIPAA and FACTA. If you shred yourself you need to keep a log of everything that was shredded with verification by a second person. A cheaper, easier and more secure solution than buying a shredder is to use a professional shredding service.
