unless you live in a very suburban neighborhood where they are a requirement, I would recommend against any type of prefabricated bin because a lot of them are gimmicky, don't work and/or don't last very long if used daily.

A very simple, and still aesthetically pleasing, would be to obtain several 4' x 4' pallets and paint them a moss green or whatever color you prefer. The link below should give you and idea of how to put them together.

Several various design plans...

Or, you could, like me just create free piles of compost in the corner of your property. I have a little 0.22 acre postage stamp lot and I still manage to have two active and two finished compost piles on my property. As long as you don't put too many "greens" in it, it won't smell and the neighbors don't mind.

In fact, they've gotten in the habit of depositing all their yard-waste in my back yard these days so I can incorporate it.

For what little it's worth, I second Arjo's opinion and recommendation.

I had a 1 acre property in NC, the compost piles attracted snakes. Not great with small children. Here in TN (JC area) we started with compost piles but property was just too small, mostly flower beds and couldn't keep up with the decomp.

We tried the black box type- hated it. Doors fell off regularly. Not easy to turn remove etc.

Then we got the yard size rotating barrell.. I love it!! We decompose all veg waste from kitchen, weeds, dead blooms, mulched leaves etc. from our yard and the neighbors!! It is great. Better compost than we ever got from our piles. And much easier. Ours is located under the deck not much water input. Easily tumbles compost out the side!! I think they're great. It's much easier to roll the tumbler, good exercise, each time we add something we give it a roll, easier to deal with than piles and turning. Well worth what we invested. Look at Gardeners Supply for the tumblers!!

I have to admit, turning a pile can be a royal PITA, especially if you have a lot of grasses in the pile as they tend to mat together as soon as the thermophilic microbes start consolidating control over the material.

For flowermom's suggestion, if you can get your hands on a 55-gallon drum that has a clamp on and not sealed lid, you can make your own tumbler on the cheap. Just get a 1/2" hole/plug saw bit for your drill and drill a bunch of holes in it spaced about 8-10" apart on all sides including the tops and bottom.

To "turn" the pile you simply putit on it's side and kick it around the yard a bit and then replace it to it's location (should be on some kind of bricks/blocks so the underside can breath/drain) Just be sure to alternate (right-side up/upside-down) the orientation of the drum on it's stand each time you replace it so that the moisture inside can mix thoroughly through the contents.

Nice thing about this method is that as you're kicking it around you're yard, some of the smallest bits of finished compost will fall out of those holes and act as a top-dressing for your lawn... ;-p
