Professional compost bin assembly - wooden slatted bins, plastic composters, and tumbler systems. Panels fitted securely, hatches working, positioned ready for your garden waste.
### Turn Waste Into Gold
Composting turns kitchen scraps and garden waste into **free plant food**. But compost bin assembly can be frustrating - especially wooden slatted types where every panel needs to slot together precisely.
> 🌱 **Garden tip:** Position on soil, not concrete - worms and microbes need access from below for proper composting.

Frequently Asked Questions about Compost bin assembly in Dawlish
Where should a compost bin go?
On level, well-drained soil ideally - worms need access from below. Partial shade stops it drying out. Near the kitchen path and veg patch makes it more likely you'll actually use it.
Can you assemble tumbler composters?
Yes - rotating tumblers are trickier than static bins. The drum needs proper mounting and smooth rotation. Worth positioning the stand before building.
Is this worth booking on its own?
At 30-45 minutes, combine it with other garden tasks - water butt, cold frame, raised bed. You're paying for the first hour anyway.
Do I need multiple bins?
Two or three work better if you have space. One fills while another finishes composting. I can assemble and help you set up a rotation system.
