More in physical privacy space than the usual post. Whenever I get mail, I shred it before disposal. Whenever I get a package, I black out the label.

But my method for blacking out the labels is basically turning on the gas range and holding the label over it until it turns black. It’s not even that good of a method, because I can still see a black-on-black print.

So, I’m wondering if anyone has any better ideas for this sort of thing.

    I peel the label off, put the sticky sides together and shred it. If it comes off in parts I just stick those to other documents that will be shredded as well, and shred. The trick is to not gum up your shredder. And remember to oil it often.
