What can be composted in a Home Composting Unit?



  • Vegetable & Fruit Peelings
    Together these are excellent
    - high in nitrogen and carbon.

  • Tea Leaves, Coffee and crushed egg shells

  • Weeds
    The compost temperature should rise to about 66° Centigrade,
    hot enough to kill off weed seeds and diseases.

  • Hair
    Hair from family or pets - no problem

  • Paper
    Paper and soft carboard can be roughly shredded
    and added to the bin

  • Animal Manure
    Pet waste is a good activator and is easy to compost

  • Evergreen Clippings
    Added in small amounts these too can be composted

  • Vacuum Dust
    The contents of the average vacuum bag
    compost excellently
