<p>A composting container comprises a frusto-conical hollow body (10) whose wall has spaced radially outwardly protruding wail portions (1) parallel to one another and to a first end of the body which, in use, will be in contact with the ground. At or near said end of the body is at least one aperture (11) covered by a movable, annular, frusto-conical cover (3). The body wall also has circumferentially spaced, axially extending, radially outwardly protruding ribs (2) which are divided into separate axially aligned portions by said protruding wall portions. There is a lid (13) for closing its second (open) end through which compostable material will be loaded. Access to the aperture(s) (11) and compost may be obtained (a) by lifting the cover (3), or (b) by sliding the cover (3) about the vertical axis of the body (10) to bring an aperture (20) in the cover (3) into register with the aperture in the body. <IMAGE></p> |
