Compost Posts--Community Composting
Community Composting is the option I am going with. They are more expensive, but they give you soil back. Since I am planning to garden, this is for me. They provide me with a bin. It is supposedly very durable; I have yet to receive it. I am then supposed to fill it with compost for four weeks. In four weeks they will send a truck by my home to pick up the compost in my bin. At the same time they pick up my bin, they drop me off a twenty-liter bag of nutrient rich composted soil. This service is $154.51 for six months. I am unaware as to the current market price of composted soil, but I imagine that the $151.54 is a fair price to pay for six or seven bags of soil and the pick up/ drop off service. I am supposed to receive my bin and bag of soil this week. I am excited, and looking forward to my future involvement in the composting and gardening lifestyle.
