The container is sealed which helps maintain the heat generated by the composting process, and rotating it helps keep it airy making it aerobic waste processing. Composting tumblers speed up composting as compared to traditional heap composting.

Composting tumbler is made by fabricating a container on a stand so that it is above the ground. It has enough holes for aeration. A lid with locking system traps the waste and keep it concealed unless manually opened.
