Home cardboard shredder

Abstract

An illustrated view of an exemplary cardboard shredder for compressing and shredding cardboard is presented. The cardboard shredder provides a shredder for cardboard to facilitate recycling while reducing storage space needed before cardboard enters a recycling stream and cutting out the middleman, thus the recycler receives uncontaminated cardboard since it is not mixed in with other materials. The manufacturer receives clean shredded cardboard for reuse, reducing headcount for the plant by reducing and eliminating their shredders being jammed with plastic. The cardboard shredder further saves space in residential and commercial spaces and increases intervals between container emptying, thus making recycling of cardboard easier while saving time and money. The carboard shredder is designed to fit over standing large garbage cans to eliminate double handling of the cardboard prior to recycling. The cardboard shredder further accommodates larger sizes of product to be shredded than a conventional paper shredder encouraging recycling of cardboard.
