Composting systems vary in what they recycle, including all types of organic waste such as food, paper, cardboard, and garden materials. They all process larger volumes, making them suitable for households with a lot of food and/or garden waste.

On-ground composters need to be placed on soil. As the scraps break down, nutrient-rich liquid disperses into the surrounding soil, leaving compost to be harvested from the bottom every 6–12 months. Each time you add kitchen scraps, stir them in for about 30 seconds and cover with equal parts garden scraps (kept stockpiled near your compost bin). On-ground composters produce compost in 3–6 months.

Tumbling composters sit off the ground and can be placed anywhere, including balconies. After adding kitchen scraps, simply rotate the drum a couple of times using the cranks and cover with equal parts garden scraps (kept stockpiled under your tumbler). Tumblers produce compost in 3–6 months.

Solar composters are partially dug into the ground and capture more heat from the sun, which aerates the compost without the need to turn it. They are faster than the other two systems and require less maintenance. They do not compost garden organics but do process all kinds of food waste and even pet poo!

Composting systems recycle all types of organic waste including food, paper, cardboard and garden materials. This makes them perfect for larger households.

Open-bottom units need to be placed on soil. As the scraps break down nutrient-rich liquid will disperse into the surrounding soil. After ~6 months compost can be harvested from the bottom.

The Green Cone recycles all types of food waste (including meat, dairy, bread and small bones) as well as small amounts of pet poo (not recommended if it is installed near food crops!). Designed to naturally circulate oxygen, there is no need for regular aeration making it perfect for medium to large households looking for a low-maintenance solution.

The system needs to be buried in well-draining soil, with full sun exposure for most of the day. As the food scraps break down, nutrient-rich liquid will disperse into the surrounding soil. No harvestable compost is produced.

Composting systems recycle all types of organic waste including food, paper, cardboard and garden materials. This makes them perfect for larger households.

Tumblers sit off the ground and can be placed anywhere, including balconies. As the scraps break down nutrient-rich liquid will drain from the tumbler and can be collected to fertilise your garden. After one chamber is full you can let the compost mature whilst filling the other. After ~6 months you can harvest the mature compost.

Worm farms recycle fruit and vegetables scraps, excluding citrus, onion, garlic and chilli.

The units can be placed indoors or outdoors, in a sheltered location out of the wind, rain and direct sunlight.

With a little tender loving care, worms will chew through your food scraps to produce nutrient-rich worm castings which can be harvested every 2-6 months. Liquid fertiliser also flows out of the farm on a regular basis, which can be diluted 10 to 1 with water to create free organic fertiliser for your garden.
