How The Bin Works
The hungry bin is a unique design. It creates
an ideal living environment for compost worms.
The worms convert organic waste into worm
castings and a nutrient-rich liquid, which are
both high-quality fertilizers. The liquid drains
freely from the bin and into a tray placed
below it. The tapered shape of the bin
compresses the castings, encouraging the
worms to move to the surface layer to access
fresh food.
Compressed castings are easier to handle
and largely free of worms. It is a simple
process to collect both the castings and liquid
produced by the hungry bin.
- Secure catch prevents the lid opening in the wind.
- Large handle at a convenient height.
- Tight-fitting lid seals against insects.
- Strong and secure tabs attach the upper body to the lower body.
- A large filter in the bottom of the floor ensures the drain hole does not get blocked. It is removable for easy cleaning.
- Strong and sturdy Zinc-plated legs.
- Durable large diameter wheels.
- Easy-pouring drip tray collects the liquid fertiliser.
