Security is paramount, but will your paper shredder fit in your space? Will it wake everyone up on Saturday morning? Here are some other important considerations:

Capacity: This refers to both sheet and bin capacity. Some models can handle numerous sheets of paper at one time, while others require more patience but may be sufficient if you don&#;t have a lot to shred at once. Always find out the bin&#;s capacity and how much paper debris it can store in gallons. CR&#;s favorite paper shredders range in capacity from 8 to 20 sheets with bins from 4 to 8 gallons.
Bin Type: A paper shredder with a pull-out console can be emptied by pulling out a drawer in front that collects paper waste and emptying it into the trash. A wastepaper-basket shredder features a heavy shredding unit that you lift off so that you can empty the basket underneath. All shredders also feature sharp points in the shredders themselves. Lifting the shredding unit off the basket may pose a safety hazard.
Dimensions: You&#;ll find a range of paper shredders to fit every space, including large models like CR&#;s top-rated paper shredder, which measures 23 inches tall and can hold 8 gallons of paper. Smaller desktop models are convenient if space is limited, but they might be slower and require you to empty them more frequently.
Noise: The noisiness of your paper shredder may not be a metric you can easily test, especially if you&#;re ordering one online, but it&#;s important to keep in mind that there are differences among shredders. CR&#;s top-rated paper shredders were all chosen for their relative quietness, with the Fellowes Powershred LX22M standing out as the least noisy.

Extras: If it&#;s important to own a paper shredder that can destroy DVDs and CDs, make sure you look for that feature. All the models we rated will shred credit cards. (If you recycle your paper, you may want to catch the plastic from cards and discs for disposal.) Other perks you&#;ll find with some models include wheels for portability and an auto-reverse function to clear up paper jams. Paper shredders can overheat after a certain amount of run time, but don&#;t worry: The shredder will automatically turn off when that happens. A run-time indicator is an additional feature on some models that alerts you when a cool-down period is needed to keep the shredder from overheating.
Even if you&#;re not a secret agent and you don&#;t think you have anything to hide, you need a paper shredder.
Garbage and recycling bins full of bank statements and credit card offers are treasure troves for identity thieves. Your best defense: a paper shredder, which chomps through sensitive documents and spits them out as confetti.
