Bags of old bills

[Merlin5]

I've got tons and tons of old bills that I don't need anymore, like phone bills, electric bills, etc that I kept from years back that I want to throw away. About half a dozen black bin liners full of them. It's ok to throw them because my accountant says they're more than 6 years old. But do I need to burn them since my name and address is all over them? Or can I just take them down the local rubbish tip?

 

[twist3d0n3]

eat them

 

[arknor]

turn them into paper mache

 

[mithrandir]

Burn witout a doubt (maybe se in tthis years bonfire?)
Better to be safe than sorry.

 

[Efour]

eat them

really the only sensible thing to do in the situation. Or sell them to an Eastern European businessman .

If I didn't have a shredder I'd burn that sort of stuff.

Any particular seasoning you'd recommend?

LOL! It's the only way to be sure

I would just have a big bonfire

 

[stulid]

[weyland yutani]

Nuke 'em from orbit, its the only way to be sure.

Seriously though I'd burn the lot.

The tears of your first born.

 

[churchhawk]

use them as toilet paper

 

[arknor]

in all seriousness i would stick them in a bucket of boiling hot water and leave them to soak for a few hours, then stick them into a black bag and squeeze all the water out.

they should be almost unreadable after that aslong as you squeeze them down really right and compacted

 

[Merlin5]

Ok, here's a dumb question, what do I need to get to burn them in? I don't have any metal containers I can think of. Are there particular containers to buy from a hardware shop for burning things?

Good idea, though burning would be easier.

I'm very ill equipped, no BBQ here, lol. I think I'll pop down B&Q or Robert Dyas today and pick up a dustbin type incinerator.
