How can I find durable enough shredders for my office?

Question

My office recently put me in charge of our document/data destruction. I’m looking for three high quality office duty shredders. We have purchased shredders from an office supply store, and we have found that these shredders are not very durable and have not lasted. How would I go about finding a high quality office paper shredder?

Answer 1

I would highly recommend a shredder from a company called Whitaker Brothers.  They helped me with the same issue around 8 years ago, and we’re still using the same shredders.  There are plenty of shredder dealers around, but I’m sure after talking to these guys and checking out their products you’ll be impressed. Feel free to check them out at http://www.whitakerbrothers.com.  Hope this helps… good luck!  

Answer 2

There are lots of choices for shredders and it's certainly hard to figure out exactly what you need when given all the choices out there.

Have a look at http://www.ishopshredders.com

They sell multiple brands in different grades of durability.  Chances are you can find what you need!

Answer 3

You’re not the only office that has had to dispose poorly made shredders.  If you’re looking for high quality office paper shredders, then you should definitely check out http://www.whitakerbrothers.com.  One of their salespeople once told me that they regularly test the latest in data destruction machines, including all types of shredders.  These guys know their stuff.  I would recommend a shredder that is German engineered and constructed.  The shredders from Whitaker Brothers are German made with cutting heads and gears made from solid steel.  These things are meant to last. If you’re looking for a reference, their shredders are used extensively by the U.S. Government and are shipped all over the world.  I would recommend one of their continuous duty shredders, but there is a wide range of shredder sizes and models out there.
