Here’s a follow up idea for repurposing and reusing discarded wooden pallets. This is an idea we first came across 5 years ago in 2006. We posted the idea as an “OFFER” on FullCircles Ottawa – OFFER: FREE Compost bins (some assembly required) – Tunney’s Pasture. VERY appropriate this time of year when yard clean up is underway, and compost season is just starting!
Thanks for the prompt, Sara!

Wooden Pallet Compost Bin
A very inexpensive compost bin can be made using wooden pallets. These bins cost almost nothing and you divert pallets that might otherwise end up in the landfill. This design includes a removable front to make it easy to turn the compost.
