Compost Bucket

A compost bucket is a container that allows you to store your kitchen scraps until you are ready to add them to your outdoor compost pile. You can find quality compost containers that are filtered, so you don’t have to worry about odor while the scraps are indoors. Most of these composting buckets are small enough to sit on your kitchen counter – and many look very attractive, shaped like a nice looking canister!

So what are the different types of indoor compost containers are available? Well, we will look at a few of them here. No doubt you will find one that is perfect for your composting needs!

First of all we will look at the highly rated Kitchen Composter Hinged Top Filtered. This compost bucket is a favorite of consumers. With replaceable filters you never have to worry about odors. This composter is dishwasher safe and can be set on the counter, floor, or mounted on the wall. It can hold a weeks worth of compost material before you dump it. Many consumers choose to dump the unit and then rinse it out with the garden hose, allowing it to dry outside. It is very durable and functional. This bucket is constructed of bright green plastic, so it may not be a match for your kitchen decor. But it can sit in a corner, inside the pantry or under the sink.

Next we have the RSVP Stainless Steel Compost Pail. This attractive compost container is made of stainless steel and has two carbon filters fitted inside the lid. With a one gallon capacity, this compost pail will hold quite a bit of organic waste before you need to dump it into the compost heap outside. With an attractive design, this pail will look nice in just about any kitchen. No one will ever know what is hiding inside!

For an inexpensive option, there is the EcoSafe Kitchen Catcher Composter. Priced at around $10, this bucket is a great way to collect your kitchen scraps. Unlike the previous compost buckets, this unit does not have a filter. However, the lid fits very tightly to help keep out insects and odors. Made of heavy duty plastic, this unit is neutral colored so it will fit in with any decor.

Since composting is a way to be ecologically smart, why not have a compost bucket that is as well? The Norpro 88 Bamboo Compost Keeper is made of one of the top renewable resources available – bamboo. This compost pail is smartly designed and has two charcoal filters built into the lid. It is attractive and durable – a great addition to any kitchen!
