Compost tumblers are an efficient alternative to the standard compost bins. Ease of use is the most significant feature of these devices. They require little effort and are an effective way to compost, especially for those who might not have as much time to dedicate to their home composting.
Compost tumblers are also reported to speed up the composting process. This is due to ease by which they can be aerated. Also, tumblers are a cleaner, pest resistant and odor free way to be involved in composting. This makes them great for those with small yards with no room for a big compost pile; or for those with close neighbors who might not appreciate the smells coming from such a pile.
Compost tumblers are made so that there is no need to turn the compost pile with a pitchfork in order to get air distributed to all of the materials. With a compost bin, it can be difficult to get the pitchfork into a four foot high bin and still have the leverage to turn the contents. Tumblers also generally require water to be added less often, adding to their convenience.
There are many styles and sizes to choose from. But whether you are a seasoned composting pro or a beginner, compost tumblers makes composting simple and easy for anyone looking for “black gold”.
