Hi
Please can you advise which is the best shredder for home use as seen some but they say cuts off after 10 mintues use
As I have lot of shredding to do
I saw one at Argo's fellows £30 thinking about but if cut out after shredding a few pages will take years
TIA

Buy two, and use them alternately, then they will last a lot longer than 10 minutes before they cut off.Domestic equipment is designed for light duty cycle use. You need an industrial shredder, or pay for a shredding service.Tbh, 10 minutes is probably as long as you want to bend over a shredder feeding in pages at a time anyway!My shredder was a £30 one years ago, and it has never cut out on me, my back usually gives up before the shredder.I want to go back to The Olden Days, when every single thing that I can think of was better.....

My 6 years of paperwork would probably be around 60 sheets of A4 !
How many sheets are you actually talking about ?

One possibility is to go for a straight cut shredder. Less secure than cross cut, but much faster.
No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0 -
hi loads of sheets but need a secure shred0

I've got a fellows cross cut, it has never cut out during shreadding. Don't put too much in at a time and it will whurr away for ages.
Nothing to see here, move along.0 -
does it take staples and paper clips /0

Buy a dustbin-style incenerator (they're on sale in my local Sainsbury's at the moment for some reason) and burn everything.
