Paola Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 I have a couple of neighbours who are being kind enough to save out of date fruit and veg for my girls. One neighbour today gave me a pot of M&S pre-shredded mixed veg that was only a couple of days out of date! Spoilt much! Anyway I would like to give my neighbours a little lidded bucket so they can save s"Ooops, word censored!"s easily. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaireG Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Something like this? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GARDNER-CARP-FISHING-GREEN-CAMO-5L-10L-15L-BAIT-BUCKET-/170690176718?pt=UK_SportingGoods_FishingAcces_RL&var=&hash=item6d709f8a08#ht_5853wt_754 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Do you not have a s"Ooops, word censored!"s bin from your council? We have had for a couple of years now - you collect any compostable waste (that the hens wont eat!) in a hinge lidded bin,which you can line with compostable sacks. You might be able to buy something like it online...try ebay. It would be good for them if it had a hinged lift-up lid,& took the liners too,so there is less chance of niffs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bramble Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Matalan also do something that would be ok, worth a look! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Typing 'compost caddy' in to Ebay brings up a range of colours and styles of lidded bin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluekarin Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 You can get a basic green plastic one in Sainsburys. I used to use mine for veg s"Ooops, word censored!"s but it now houses my seed packets and I use a diatom tub for the veg s"Ooops, word censored!"s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paola Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 Thanks guys Looks like Amazon is the most reasonably priced. Unfortunately my council doesn't compost. They are only just about to recycle glass from the kerb!! Which I am rather excited about *note to self, must get out more* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJuff Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 An ice cream tub? Eat, enjoy and reuse? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
