Inverting the contents.

The box type bins I've seen have an opening at the base you can shovel
the bottommost compost out of - slide straight in, pull out (think
pizza oven). *if you really needed to rotate the compost in a bin, you

***That was the case with my former composter; had an opening at the
base. The one I am now decommissioning does not, so I call it a poor
design.
