This is basically what I've done.

1. Buy a Fujitsu ScanSnap.

2. Buy a wall mounted folder rack (something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Klickpick-Office-Organizer-Multipurpo...) and mount it near the scanner.

3. All paper, put in the folder when it comes in.

4. Once a week, scan everything in the folders. Scanner turns paper into OCR'd PDF.

5. Set the scanner to scan to a Dropbox folder.

6. I name my files YYYY.MM.DD_Organization_DocTitle. The rest can be searched for since it's OCR'd.
