Beware to anyone buying a shredder at Office Max. Apparently none of the models they sell actually shred paper. This became obvious after it was discovered that Office Max in Naples throws old job applications with social security numbers, addresses, and other personal information into a dumpster behind the store.

If you buy a shredder and hope people assign themselves the extra job of shredding you are a fool. Here was a store with hundreds of shredders sitting around, and not the small ones but the big ones that cost hundreds of dollars, and yet they couldn’t be troubled with actually doing the job.

The only document destruction program that is effective is a shredding service that comes by regularly and provides the business with documentation that it was all shredded..
