Get a cross cut shredder, you can get them cheap now. Regardless of
the extra security, because stuff is cut into small squares the bin
doesn't fill up as quickly as the straight cut shredders. So even a
small cross cut shredder will need less emptying than a larger
straight cut.

even less so if you simply cut the personally identifying information
out of the letter / A4 sheet, shred that and bin the rest.
