IMPORTANT NOTE: The Drums used in our compost tumbler are reclaimed from the food industry, and reused, and may therefore have scratches and scuffs related to this previous use. By reusing this product we are preventing it from ending up in landfill, and also avoiding the energy consumption needed to turn it into plastic flake, remould it, and deliver it as a different product. Reuse is considered superior to recyling. It is a better, more ecologically sensible choice. For this reason we hope you will choose this greener product to other compost tumblers on the market.

How it Works -
Fill the Drum of the compost bin - This system is flexible, there is more than one way to go about it. As a rule of thumb for the fastest method - add about 1 part fresh green material (nitrogen producing) to 3 parts dry brown material (carbon producing). Ideal green material includes fresh grass trimmings, fresh leafy material, poultry and equine waste and kitchen waste. Ideal brown material includes dry leaves, wood, black and white paper and cardboard. To achieve the fastest results coarse material like cardboard and wood should be shredded first.
Rotate the Compost Drum –
Rotate the drum of the Compost Tumbler 2-3 times once a day, to ensure the contents are aerated and spend time in the hot centre of the Compost Tumbler. (By the way my 89-year-old mother can happily turn this tumbler while full).
Use the compost –
During the warmer months of April to October, compost can be ready after just 2 or 4 weeks with this compost bin. Mix it liberally with soil on anything you want to grow, or apply around the base of growing plants as protective mulch.
