Inbox Options

Shredder Options
Shredders are important for protecting our sensitive information when we’re disposing of paperwork. Here are a few we recommend:
Thumb Drives and External Hard Drives
We both use and love the Glyph portable hard drives. They are durable and have worked flawlessly for us. We also prefer SSD hard drives for speed and durability because there is no spinning disk like some older portable hard drives.
Another less expensive option is the Samsung T5 portable SSD. 1TB size makes sense because it offers a good value but also provides room to grow.
USB Thumb drives could be a good budget option if you want to spend as little as possible, but they have slower speeds than external SSD drives and are more prone to failure. My favorite USB thumb drive is the Samsung Fit Plus.
Fireboxes
For important documents that we need to keep a paper copy of (birth certificates, social security cards, passports, etc.), we recommend using a durable firebox like the ones below.
