Even in many homes, people have purchased small, trash can sized paper shredders for mail and receipts. Most businesses will not be able to shred material they have by purchasing one of these same machines. First, small machines are not capable of volume. Secondly, companies in general are downsizing staff and it is unlikely that they are going to pay someone to feed documents into a tiny shredder all day.

That is where you come in. Investing in a paper shredding business now is like buying a gold mine. The list of documents Federal Government says must be destroyed is getting lengthier everyday. Every time you sign a document, be it a job application or a credit card receipt, there is a time limit that receiving company has to hold that document. After that time limit, they are required by law to destroy, or shred, that document.

Large corporations can take in thousands of signed resumes' a year. Restaurants and retail outlets that have not gone to electronic signature devices can have thousands of credit card receipts a month. Think of all banking records that come due for destruction every week. Now think about amount of tax documents that need to be rotated and destroyed every year. These are just a few examples of growing necessity of paper shredding businesses for confidential document destruction.
