| I love my tumbleweed. I just emptied it, again! It makes composts so quickly, you have to stay on top of the materials pile. I have to save it all for this hungry composter. Three weeks go by rather busily when you have a garden to tend, and a lawn to mow, and a life to live. You turn around and it’s time to harvest the compost again. Do

To get started composting, just throw some material into the Tumbleweed compost bin and give it a spin. When the composter gets full and heavy, you can push down on one side and pull up on the other and still make it tumble without much effort at all.
We were impressed with the way the stainless steel rod helped quickly break down the material in the composter with just a few turns, improving the already good compost tumbling action.
Many people prefer tumbling composters because the design makes it easy to keep the compost turned and aerated. A well-aerated bin helps break down materials into ready compost faster.
Your specific composting time depends on your mix of materials, moisture of the compost, weather, etc.
The tumbling composter comes with complete instructions on how to make compost.
The composter has two animal-resistant twist lock vented lids at either end that allow for easy filling and emptying of the bin while producing maximum aeration.
