The outside compost container needs to let in air. It needs to be turned regularly. And it needs to be protected from direct sunlight, rain, and wind. There are four styles of containers that typically meet those three basic requirements. They are snow-fence and wire-mesh holding units; wood and wire three-bin turning units; and worm composting bins. University extension websites tend to be authoritative and respected. Instructions and pictures of the former are found at http://extension.Missouri.edu/explore/agguides/hort/G06957.htm.

THE BENEFITS OF A COMPOST BIN OVER A COMPOST PILECompost bins are a great way to reap all of the benefits of composting with less of the problems.Composting has become more popular in recent years, but the idea of having a pile of decomposing waste in the back yard is a turn off for many. A compost bin has many benefits over a traditional compost pile, and is simple to use. CostThe cost of starting a compost bin is actually much cheaper than a person might think. Any large plastic container with a lid will work. A large outdoor trash can with wheels is ideal. The only modifications you will need to make are to drill a few holes in the sides and bottom. For about $15-$30 and a few minutes of your time you are ready to get started.Keeps Pests OutPerhaps the biggest issue that people have with a compost pile is that pests are constantly scavenging it and making a mess of the yard. A compost bin is a closed container which prevents pests from being able to access it. The bin is also less likely to attract some of the larger pests that might flock toward a traditional compost heap.ContainmentIn order for compost to do its job, it needs to decompose quickly. Because the compost bin keeps all of the waste contained in one area, the heat inside will speed up the composition process. Additionally, the lid will keep out most of the rain to prevent excess moisture. Also, with all of the compost in one bin, your back yard might be a little bit more attractive. The bin will replace the traditional pile of waste that needs to be hidden in a far corner of the yard.PortabilityIf your compost bin is made in a container with wheels, then it can be moved around. Sure, portability is not one of the first things people look for when thinking about compost, but it can actually come in handy. If you are one that uses the decomposed organic matter as a fertilizer for your garden, then you can now move the bin to your garden to apply the compost. You don't have to go back and forth between the pile and the garden any longer.
An outdoor couch is a good idea if you can find outdoor fabric that wont mildew. If thats not possible I would go for a waterproof swing with a detachable cushion for easy washing.
Outdoor treated glass tables are a great idea, as they are shatter-resistent and blend in well with surrounding scenery.

It depends on what you are putting in your compost bin. The best kind of compost contains nutrients obtained from the fecal matter of animals. So, a lot like fecal matter. Try spooning your own poop into your mouth next time you go number two and you won't have to eat compost to get an idea of what it tastes like.
