[quote=Anonymous]If you're in Montgomery County, you can pick up a free bin, but they aren't as fancy as something you might buy. There's info here: http://www6.montgomerycountymd.gov/apps/dep/solidwaste/store/documents/composting-mailer.pdf We have two in our yard (nestled back in the woods so we don't see them). We keep a stainless steel compost container on our kitchen counter and fill it with all fruit and veggie trimmings and dump them in the bin, along with some grass clippings. One bin is "active" (i.e. we add to it regularly) and the other is just doing it's thing. It's a really simple system and it's been going well. I'm at the point where it feels realy weird to throw a banana peel in the trash! Because we have the open bins, we occassionally get animals (deer mostly) checking out what's there, but we haven't had any major issues. [/quote]
