What are the methods to destroy obsolete documentation? Actually, what is the procedure?

You must have a way of knowing the number of distributed hard copies in use. When they became obsolete, you just exchange the now obsolete copies with the new version. Obsolete copies must be destroyed. You can use a shredder, or simply stamp obsolete in a clearly visible way. The original document, now obsolete, can be destroyed or stamped as obsolete and kept in a file just for obsolete documents.
