BuyOnlineNow.com, an online office supply retailer based in Rochester, MN has created a new tool to specifically help people find the right paper shredder for their needs. The “Shredder Finder,” allows users to select paper shredders by usage amount, security level and sheet capacity.
Security has always been a major concern for everyone from large companies dealing with delicate information to individuals in danger of identity theft, and therefore quite the market for paper shredders has sprouted. As the need for more and more security has been steadily increasing, the number of and different types of shredders being made available for purchase has grown as well. Although, in the long run, the many different choices may be beneficial to customers as they can purchase a paper shredder that meets certain needs, at first it can be difficult to sort through the many brands and styles. BuyOnlineNow has tried to make this as easy as possible with their new “Shredder Finder.” By allowing the customer to narrow their selection down using the three main features of most paper shredders, and then letting them compare up to 4 paper shredders at a time, they hope to make shopping for paper shredders as pain free and easy as possible.
Paper shredders can be divided by usage into four main types. Personal, small office, general office and commercial or heavy duty. Depending on how many people will be using the paper shredder on an average day, determines which category the paper shredder is listed in. Personal shredders are meant to just be used by one person a few times daily. Small office shredders can be used by 1-5 people a few times daily. General office paper shredders are designed to be moderately used by groups of 6-10 people and commercial/heavy duty paper shredders can be used repeatedly by groups of 10 or more. By clearly classifying paper shredders in terms of usage, BuyOnlineNow makes it simple for customers to whittle their search down to just the shredders necessary.
The second way paper shredders are categorized is by their security level. There are three main types of shredders, with three very different levels of security. The first is the strip-cut shredders, which cut documents into thin strips. These types of paper shredders offer the least amount of security and would work well for individuals and small business with a minimal security threat. The next step up are the cross-cut paper shredders. These cut documents into smaller squared bits of paper, offering a higher level of security. The final type of shredder gives the highest amount of security you can find. These are the Micro-cut paper shredders. Micro-cut shredders turn documents into miniscule bits of paper and work great in places that require an extremely high level of security such as government agencies.
The last way shredders are sorted is by sheet capacity. This is how many sheets of paper can be shredded at one time. It is important for a company to know how many documents they will be shredding on a daily basis, as they don’t want to have someone just shredding documents all day long. Paper shredders are divided by 1-9, 10-19, 20-29 and 30-39 sheets that can be shredded at one time.
By creating the “Shredder Finder,” BuyOnlineNow hopes to eliminate a lot of the hassle people are faced with when shopping for paper shredders online. BuyOnlineNow stocks a large variety of shredders from many of the top manufacturers including Fellowes shredders and GBC shredders. BuyOnlineNow has been providing office supplies and office furniture to business and individuals since 2000.
