FAQs

How do I assemble the composter?

The composter comes with detailed instructions and all necessary screws. Lay out all components and follow the step-by-step guide carefully.

What kind of waste can I compost?

You can compost kitchen scraps (fruit and vegetable peelings, coffee grounds) and garden waste (leaves, grass clippings). Avoid meat, dairy products, and diseased plants.

How long does it take to get compost?

The composting process can take several months, depending on the materials and conditions. Turning the compost regularly speeds up the process.

What if the timber warps or shrinks?

Some warping or shrinkage can occur as the timber dries, which is a natural phenomenon. While this does not affect the product's use, it is not covered by the guarantee.

How do I maintain the moisture level?

The compost should be moist but not waterlogged. Add water if it appears dry.

Is the treatment on the wood safe?

Yes, the wood is treated with UK and EU approved water-based wood preserving treatment.

What is the capacity of the composter?

The composter has a capacity of approximately 1900 Litres.

What is the guarantee?

The composter comes with a 15-year guarantee on timber products.

Troubleshooting

Compost is not breaking down.

Ensure a good mix of 'green' and 'brown' materials, adequate moisture, and regular turning to aerate the compost.

Mould appearing on the timber.

This is often temporary and caused by moisture from transit or treatment. It will typically disappear as the timber dries.

Difficulty assembling the composter.

Carefully review the instructions and ensure all screws are used. If needed, contact customer support for assistance.
