I wanted an inexpensive holding bin for composting materials. I ended up buying the Presto Hoop Bin.

It comes as a roll and includes some nylon washers, nuts and bolts. You just create the size you want and then bolt through the holes holding the bin in a round shape.

This bin works well and it is black so it retains heat to help the composting process. It also has lots of holes so plenty of air is always aiding the composting process.

I got my presto hoop bin from planetnatural.com. It is only $24.95 and they are a pleasure to buy from. I bought 2 because I am eventually going to rotate the pile into the next hoop bin and it will contain the finished compost while I am filling the first with new organic materials.
