Document destruction services
Hi, I have a box of confidential papers that I do not need. I would prefer not to just throw them away, but to either shred or incinerate them. Due to the sheer size of the box, it is not practical for me to buy and use a home shredder. Would anyone have a suggestion as to what is the best way to destroy them? Aer there any services that do it inexpensively? Thank you igor

Just burn them, either in a fireplace, since it's winter, or in a 55-gallon drum. Or in a campfire. Should go quickly.

This kind of paper does not burn very well. I have tried it. Burning it in my fireplace will take forever. A drum is an option though. - Igor.
There are companies that will shred an entire box. In your presence. Box goes in on one side (cardboard and all), little pieces come out the other side. Check the yellow pages. On Sat, 24 Jan 1998, Igor Chudov @ home wrote:
