A location that is conducive to controlled moisture and partial sunlight, comfortable for safe monitoring and viewing, and convenient for use is where a compost bin should be put.

Specifically, a compost bin has to be in partial sunlight and near water sources -- such as garden hoses -- in order to comply with internal air, heat and moisture levels. It must be located in a place where it will not offend its operators or visitors with occasionally unattractive odors and sights. It needs to comply with its operators requirements for safe access and sure protection from inquisitive birds and mammals.
