I found an abandoned dog carrier measuring about 27 x 19 x 19. It's split on the bottom, but I've turned it into a compost bin. The recycling/composting experts I called agreed that it would work. They were happy to hear I was using something that could easily have been thrown out. To keep it as full as possible, place the carrier with the door facing up to rotate compost.

I am looking for instructions to make a homemade compost bin.
