Blackwall 330 litre Compost Bins and base plates (Clarkston G76)
Gifted
IMPORTANT: Only available for collection. Read details to check if item/s would suit you and be suitable for you to carry or safely fit inside your vehicle, on your roof rack or in your trailer. Please provide days and times you'd be free to collect. Failure to arrive on the mutually agreed collection day may result in the item/s being promised to another Freegler. DETAILS: I have two compost bins with optional base plates for placing on hard surfaces. I bought these from EvenGreener some years ago and they have not been used for some years. They are in "clean" condition apart from the odd cobweb, wee bit of dirt, some dust and some splashes of fence paint on the top of one lid. The lids, base plates and hatches all in working order. Can be given a brush over, rinse, before someone picks them up. Have a look at the EvenGreener website as there are useful links about composting. Here's a bit about them from the Even Greener website: "Transform your kitchen and garden waste into nutritious, valuable feed to enrich your soil and nurture your garden with the UK's best selling compost bin. The Blackwall 330 Litre Black Compost Converter is expertly designed to provide a secure environment for your compost to thrive in, retaining heat to encourage moisture and produce a healthy mixture of microorganisms within the compost bin. Manufactured in the UK from recyclable plastic with a *5-year guarantee, the composter is available in two different sizes; the compact 220 and the larger *330 litres, and is UV stabilised to prevent any degradation." NB: *My bins are the 330 litre capacity and the warranty is no longer valid. but they are in great shape - not cracked or brittle, in full working order and ready to continue on for many years to come. Size of main bin before adding base and lid - 100cm tall, 80cm diameter base. Add 15cm to 20cm once base and lid added. Each bin new would be around £55 to £65 and an additional £20 to £25 for a base plate. Rather than try and sell on Gumtree or eBay I would rather someone who likes to recycle, grow and compost, to get one or both of these free - so long as they're happy to come to me and uplift at their own expense. I also have a water butt stand I've listed separately - no longer have the big water butt as it split and now have two small ones - it needs a new home. It might be suitable for you too.

Water Butt Water Barrel Stand (Clarkston G76)
IMPORTANT: Only available for collection. Read details to check if the item would suit you and could be safely carried or put inside your vehicle, on your roof rack or in your trailer. If interested, please state preferred days and times to collect. Failure to collect on mutually agreed day may result in the item being promised to another Freegler. DETAILS: A water butt stand that had been of use until our big water butt split! So now have two small water butts with their own stands so this is surplus. It's black. The dimensions on it state that it's 21 inches by 12 inches (or 53cm by 30cm). The height of 30cm it means that the tap on the butt should be high enough off the ground that you'd be able to put a watering can under it. The diameter of 53cm is that of the base of the stand, NOT the diameter of the top of it. The top of the stand is designed with "steps" so that a variety of sizes of butt can sit snugly on it. The diameter of the innermost top section is 38cm - a butt with a base diameter of 37 to 38cm should sit nicely here. The diameter of the next section is roughly 43cm - a butt with a base diameter over 38cm, up to 43cm should here. The top section, before the outer rim, is 43 to 46cm - a butt with base diameter over 43cm up to 46cm goes here. It has been kept outside but is in a solid and pretty clean condition and is not brittle or cracked. It should suit most standard water butts of 120 litres up to 250 litres BUT do check that the diameter of the very bottom of your butt/barrel is no more than 46cm and no less than 37cm or it won't fit well on this base. If your water butt/water barrel stand is looking a bit sad or cracked now, maybe this could be good for you. Happy for someone to come here and take this way. Better for it to be used than discarded. If you're looking for compost bins please look at my other listing.
