It's not just for physical documents. I have payslips which may be useful in the future, but are would be really hard to recover when I leave the company. Any invoices which come to my email. Any bank documents which exist in a vaguely named "account updates" email. And many other things which could be possible to find in the future, but are much better in paperless with appropriate tags and OCR. But yeah, then there are for example the bank account contract updates which come by physical mail only. > expense notes (...) I throw everything away once it's handled. Don't know about your location, but I need to keep the tax related documents for 5 years in case of an audit.
