    Till receipts are chucked, cash dispenser tickets are kept, I never throw out bank statements or utilities bills (have to keep those for my business accounts/tax) catalogues etc are recycled. I don't worry about my address being on those, there are no other details that are pertinent. DD

    I used to work in a bank and was taught to shred everything like this. We have an industrial shredder at work - that's really fun to use!

    I work in a gp surgery so you can imagine the amount we have to shred, to say we have gone through many a shredder is an understatment.
    At home my better half is banned from shredding as he has a very bad habit of not looking properly at what he is shredding, the amount of things that we have had go missing in the house (he has shredded them by mistake). so now he is only allowed to sort the draws out and leave the shredding for me...then i normally overheat it haha x

    We shred loads of things and the resulting mess of paper bits are chucked on the compost heap!
