What goes in a shred bin? What doesn't?
Clean paper (any size), blueprints, newspapers, magazines, brochures, mail, photographs, and file folders can go into shred bins; no need to remove staples, paper clips, rubber bands or small binders.
The following items do not go into shred bins: paper exceptions (cardboard, telephone books, hard cover books), plastics (plastic bags and packing materials, computer discs, DVDs, CDs, VCR tapes, transparencies, ID badges, driver’s licenses, x-rays), batteries (no batteries of any kind), hardware (computer parts, printer and photocopier parts, trash or hazardous materials), metals, and biohazardous and medical waste.
