trevor67 Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 I need to shred or burn a bunch of old documents, accumulated over the years. (trade records, tax records,bank stuff etc.) that have sensitive info on them. I want to witness it being done, and not just dropping off somewhere and trusting someone to do it. Its about 4000 sheets of paper would be my guess. I live in a apartment, so it's not a matter of building a fire pit in my yard to do it. Any law abiding ideas or advice?

Salerno Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 If you don't find someplace local grab a shredder off Lazada (or wherever), I find shredding quite therapeutic 555 Crosscutter, and for extra security mix the shreddings up and bin at different times/places. https://www.lazada.co.th/catalog/?_keyori=ss&from=input&page=1&q=cross cut paper shredder&sort=popularity&spm=a2o4m.pdp_revamp.search.go.1f182674CUu8sr 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VocalNeal Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Not a quick job but stick them in a blender full of water. No one will read the pulp you produce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Related topic. I want to destroy some old hard drives. I think the best method is drilling through them. Any place in Pattaya to go for that (after the pandemic whenever that is)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the HD's are the old glass plate types just hit them several times with a hammer this breaks/shatters the glass data plate inside the HD making them unreadable ..That's how I've always destroyed mine .... no technical skill needed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
