X-posting. Yes, I know I am a bad person :-)

I was just about to order a couple of plastic compost bins from the
council
(or at least, the firm that does a discount deal via the council) when my
eyes alighted on a white plastic 1cu metre bag which was used to deliver
sand. I have another one somewhere as well.

We use these for:
1. collecting & storing horse muck until it matures.
2. Storing conifer chippings for a year before using as mulch
3. Storing leaves till they break down.

Haven't used 'em for compost yet - the compost heaps are made of stacked
turves (brilliant!) and old pallets (easier to turn over)
