Wooden Composter - Advice

  • Site the composter on soil or a lawn
    • If using a concrete base, add a layer of soil 5cm thick to the composter
  • Add some woody plant stems at the bottom of the composter to
    • Help drainage
    • Help air circulation
  • It is important to maintain a good mix of green & brown materials
  • Compost is produced more quickly in the Summer than in the Winter
  • It takes between 6-12 months to produce good quality compost
  • It is possible to add an organic activator to aid the process

When is Your Compost Ready?

  • The compost should be crumbly, dark & moist
    • If it is not quite ready, leave it for another few weeks
    • Some material like egg shells might not fully break down but this will not effect the quality of your compost
Great product, exactly what I needed. Quick and easy to assemble, a great size and good price. I got two and delighted with them.
Really nice product, easy to assemble, looks great on the allotment, quick efficient delivery, arrived the next day. Flat pack delivery, easy to fit in car.
Chose Fastway as the courier to deliver this, I got a notification to say it had been delivered, but nothing had been brought to my house.

In the end it turned out they had inexplicably delivered it to the local Chadwicks, without even a phone call to notify me. The communication from Fastway said that they were told to deliver it there, which is just outright lies. If you'd like a stress free delivery, avoid Fastway at all costs.

On the good side though, John from The Garden Shop did an excellent job of chasing this up for me, The Garden Shop customer service really is brilliant. I understand the above issue is no fault of your own, thanks again.

Set this up in my garden in only a few minutes yesterday evening, great product, looking forward to finally feeding the garden with some home made compost.

Thanks! [STAFF NOTE] We were sorry to hear about the difficulties with delivery, we honestly don't know what happened there. Glad we were able to work to sort it out and in the end you were happy with the product

Just like the photo, easy to put together... perfect
Really easy to put together and looks great!
Good item. Exactly what I was looking for and excellent value for money. Quick delivery with efficient courier providing good tracking.
