HOW TO USE THE USHRED MACHINE
THE USHRED MACHINE - HOW IT WORKS:

1. Customer locates a USHRED shredding system.

2. Customer purchases a pre-paid shredding card from the card machine attached to the USHRED machine. In the picture, this is the large rectangular black box that sits on top of the shredder. As an alternative, customer can use their credit card.  The USHRED card machine accepts VISA and MASTER CARD.

3. Customer places their documents on a convenient table located next to USHRED shredding machine or on the actual machine. Each machine has a convenient space to place a box or bag of documents. In the picture, this space is located to the left of the conveyor belt (under the pre-paid card machine).


 

4.  Customer spreads out their documents on the shredder conveyor belt in preparation for shredding.  Once the documents are prepared, the shredding process can begin.
5.  Customer inserts either their pre-paid shredding card or their credit card into the USHRED card machine.  Once this is done the power is turned on and the timer is activated.  Time elapsed and amount charged is continuously displayed on the digital panel of the USHRED card machine.  In the picture above, the USHRED card machine is located in the top right hand corner.

6. The shredding process begins.  Using the conveyor belt, the customer feeds documents into the high powered shredder.  Paper clips, clasps, etc. do not have to be removed-the shredder will destroy these.  A picture guide of what can and cannot go through the shredder is attached to each unit for easy customer viewing.

7.  The customer's documents are destroyed quickly and conveniently.  The shredded documents are dispensed into a locked, steel high security catch basin.  The customer can view their destroyed information through a thick plexiglass panel fastened within the steel cage.  The contents of this basin are discarded every 48 hours by qualified security personnel.  A placard stating disposal policy is prominently displayed on the cage.

8.  When shredding is complete, the customer pushes a prominently displayed STOP button on the USHRED card machine.  The timer and the power are de-activated.  Charges automatically stop.  NOTE:  Timer and charges will continue if the minimum charges has not been reached.


9.  You're done!  You've just shredded a stack of paper that would have taken hours on your personal shredder.  The best part:  You did it all in about five minutes and it didn't cost you a fortune!

You can't wait to tell others about your great find!  And with all the time you've saved,  you can now go do something fun!
