Special offers on composters and water butts

Did you know that at least 30 per cent of household rubbish can be composted? This is not only an excellent way of recycling waste, but can also provide you with natural compost for your garden.

To help encourage people to compost more of their waste the Recycle Now campaign is offering compost bins at specially discounted prices. The composters cost much less than the suggested retail price and will be delivered to your house free of charge.

The prices for standard composters, from 1 April 2008, are:

• 220 litre compost converter: £17
• 330 litre compost converter: £20 

For more details about these bargain compost bins, and tips about how to get started, download the leaflet on the right of the page. You can also order a composter by calling 0845 077 0757, or by visiting the Recycle now website. There are a number of other products that can help with composting available from this website.

More information about how to compost can also be found on the Recycle now website.
