Compost bins provide a simple and easy way to help people get started composting and are particularly good solutions for people who have limited living space.
One variety of compost bins are called holding units. These bins are very low maintenance and are probably the best solution when the amount of space for the home composting project is very limited.
With holding units, the compost pile is not turned and therefore not aerated, so the overall process of decomposing will take anywhere from six months up to two full years.
You will want to locate your compost bins according to the functional needs of your family and also taking into consideration the aesthetics of the area. You should not place your compost pile near an area that you frequently use for entertaining, even if you have it screened with fencing or plants.
It should be located where it gets plenty of air circulation, in a partially shady spot and near the garden area if possible.
