I'm thinking that I would have 2 of them (or more) and after a while I would take the first bin apart and put the top half or so into a different one, then top it off with new organic matter. I'd turn the bottom one and put the bin back around it to let it keep composting. I think I'll look into this. I presently have a four-bin system that I can use to turn one bin's contents into another one, but I've been thinking about getting something like this to put next to my garden so that I don't have to cart everything over to the existing bins.
I think that would work very nicely for you. With the ability to unlatch them from the front and spill out the contents or to reach into the pile with a fork, you could process material nicely. Let me know what you decide to do and how it works out for you. Best Regards, DFJ
Maybe buy a pool noodle and slit it halfway through longways and put it on the top edge of the bin to cover the sharp edges? Or maybe some water pipe insulation, it's not quite as big a diameter, I don't think.
We haven't had any problems, but we make sure all "edibles" are buried well and mixed in. Or, we put those types of things to our chickens and then the bedding to the compost.
Thank you for the review!
My pleasure!

Randy, that's a great idea. I'll give it a try!

Have to watch these bins, they attract rats.
