    shred

    Johnston County Industries (now located in Selma, old Eaton building) has starting shredding stuff for other folks. I do not know how much they charge. You can call Thomas at 743-8700 (just ask for Thomas). Hope this helps

    I use a shredder for personal papers, too. I burned up several shredders getting rid of old office papers, though, so if it's like several file cabinets full, you might want to find a place that does it commercially. One thing I did learn is that they get pretty hot, so it works better if you only shred for a few minutes at a time and then let the shredder cool off.

    :iagree: I have almost burned one up by not letting it cool off.

    Just tore mine apart this morning for getting ambitious (shredded about 40 pages instead of the 24 max)

    I have little bits of paper now in places that would get me banned. The room looks like it snowed! :x

    I hate shredding. Got a ton of it that needs doing. Freaking pre-approved credit cards. How many do they think a family needs???? Grrr!

    I think it would be great if they would have a shred it day in the cleveland area. I know I have a bunch of old files that I would like to get rid of too. My mom lives in AZ and the city she lives in has a shred it day twice a year.

    I would think that the group to pull this off might be the Cleveland Chamber of Commerce. You might suggest it to them.

    That is a really good idea. I just might do that. Thanks!
