Default Would this composting idea give me problems?

Council re-cycling dumps usually prohibit the dumping of "invasive"
plants!

I thought that was just Japanese Knot Weed?

Anything I don't or can't shred goes into my brown bin.
They even say we can put kitchen waste in it now, but I don't, nor would
I buy compost from the council. Yukk!


Depends on the kitchen waste - veg peelings and egg shells are OK. I
compost more stuff than our council allows in green bins and use my
green bin for composting leaves for leaf mould (which takes two years).

I would never put fat or meat on the compost heap it encourages vermin.

Weird useless factoid. Salford's "green" bins are shocking pink!


And South Norfolk's are brown.
