Shredder Repair

A shredder is a device that cuts any inserted documents, such as papers and credit cards, into strips or finer pieces. These devices are very useful and handy in destroying important, confidential, or private tangible information.

The primary means of identifying a shredder is the manufacturer's label, which will have the model number and serial number. This is usually found on the sides, rear or bottom of the shredder, often near the electrical cord. Knowing the type of shredder if possible will further aid in identification. Below are some different types listed for reference.

There are different shredders for different objects and purposes:
