Default Paper shredders for the office

I use an old GBC shredder. It has a nylon drive gear on a 7/16" hex
shaft that used to slip badly until I replaced the hub with a piece of
a cheap bicycle type wrench. It only handles about three sheets at a
time but a few years back, I set it up over a garbage bag stand and
produced 17 leaf bags of shredded paper. Like you, I shred everything,
even flyers, and set out a leaf bag every couple months.


I use shredded documents for fire starter. Works well enough.

If someone
wants to re-assemble anything out of my recyclable paper I wish them
lots of luck - I know it can be done, but the return would be
negligible.
