Abstract
The present invention provides document shredding devices mountable on various waste receptacles for shredding paper. The document shredding devices have a housing defining a paper shredding passageway. A paper shredding mechanism is contained within the housing and extends into the paper shredding passageway. A mounting support adjustably extends from a waste receptacle mounting side of the housing while remaining housing sides are free of waste receptacle mounting supports. The mounting support has a position retracted into the housing which defines a substantially linear mounting channel and another position extended outward from the housing which defines a nonlinear mounting channel.
