4 Easy Ways To Dispose Of Shredded Paper - Shredded-Paper

by Liz Seyi Digital marketing manager

So, you’ve used and reused your shredded paper as much as possible for the purposes for which you originally bought it – which, when you choose our own products, amounts to quite a long time – and finally, your paper has reached the end of its lifespan. 


A question remains: how do you actually dispose of your quality shredded paper now that you’ve gotten as much use out of it as possible? 


Here are four easy ways to dispose of shredded paper, using the most eco-friendly processes available. 


Recycling


Quality shredded paper lasts a long time, but all good things come to an end. So, when the time comes for you to scrap your shredded paper, why not consider recycling it all? 


Recycling is the most eco-friendly process you can practise, for the benefit of your environment. There are several options regarding the recycling of shredded paper: contact your local recycling centre to see if they’ll take the product, or get in touch with a professional who can dissolve and break down the paper into fibres so new paper can be made. 


Unfortunately, if you choose the latter path, the new paper will be lower grade, but it will still serve a useful purpose. 


Composting


Quality shredded paper makes for the perfect organic compost, and is a great present for Mother Nature. Shredded paper is biodegradable, originally manufactured from trees, and therefore has a high carbon content. The carbon found in the shredded paper can rebalance carbon and nitrogen levels on your composting site, thereby helping to ensure healthy growth for your future plants.

Fire starter


When the weekend comes and you’re in the mood for a barbecue, you’ll need one thing: a good fire starter. Shredded paper is quite the effective agent for lighting steady fires, and can save you plenty of money on purchasing common fire starters such as magnesium and matchsticks.


Pet bedding


For the pet lovers out there, quality shredded paper actually makes brilliant pet bedding too! In fact, pets of all sizes and species, from dog to bunny rabbit, enjoy shredded paper as a comfortable pet bed. By layering shredded paper, you can create a warm, secure, and lovable nest for your favourite animal companion. 

There you go – just a few ways to get rid of your remaining shredded paper that aren’t about just ‘throwing it away’. To check out the latest quality shredded paper available in our stock, please don’t hesitate to check out our online store today.
