How large should the shredder be (collection volume)?

Document shredders Viewed: 348

The right waste collection volume for your document shredder depends on two factors. First, establish how many people will be using the document shredder. The more people use the device, the bigger the waste collection volume should be. As a rule of thumb we recommend 1–3 people = up to 40 l, 4–7 people = 25–100 l, 8–12 people = 40–160 l, more than 12 people = up to 190 l. Next, think about how often those people will be using the document shredder. If the document shredder is only for occasional use, we suggest a device from the lower end of the recommended volume range. For frequent use, you should choose an option from the higher end of the range. If the document shredder will be used only rarely or very rarely, a device from the next smaller volume range may be sufficient.
