Our Wooden Compost Bin System consists of single bins and additional modules, all made from solid treated wood with closed sides for moist and even composting and features simple slide-out panels for easy access from any side of the bin - and with two generously sized bins to choose from (the standard has a 510 litre capacity and the extra large a colossal 1080) you'll be producing mountains of home-made compost!
This traditional wooden compost bin system can be assembled in minutes and no nails or screws are used as the side planks simply slot into grooved corner posts; ideal for initial construction AND getting to your mature compost. Additional modules consist of three sides which are attached to an existing bin and are ideal for creating a simple to turn multi-bin composting set-up. An optional lid is also available and the wooden compost bin system offers a simple and effective way to compost kitchen and garden waste - your garden will certainly benefit from the compost produced by these 83cm wide x 83cm deep x 74cm high (33" x 33" x 29") and 120cm wide x 120cm deep x 75cm high (48" x 48" x 29") reliable and attactive compost bins.
