Compost bins should be sited off to the side of the garden, in a flat area. A shady spot or partial shade is better than full sun. Consider the prevailing winds and proximity to living areas--both yours, and your neighbors--when siting a composting area. Avoid siting bins upwind of living areas, in case odor issues arise.
