Abstract: The present invention is directed to a container comprising a first piece of mesh material and at least one separate second piece of mesh material. The first piece of mesh is bent to form a bottom wall and a first pair of sidewalls. The second piece of material forms a second pair of sidewalls. When the pieces are joined together, a basket portion with an upwardly-extending opening is formed. The basket portion may further include a runner portion that may be a separate rail connected to the basket portion, thus forming a drawer. When the container is used with a drawer system including a frame, the runner portion is slidably received in a pair of frame runners. This allows the drawer to move with respect to the frame between retracted and extended positions. The present invention is also directed to a method for making such containers.

Abstract: A compost bin fitted with closure devices to allow it to be readily opened to expose the compost pile for turning, amendment and movement to a new site. Commonly available closure devices are modified and put to a new use wherein they affect the easy opening and closure of the sidewall of compost bins. This new easily opening compost bin eliminates the need to remove compost from a bin for turning. Instead the bin is removed from around the compost. Once exposed the compost pile is readily and more easily accessible to turning and amending from all sides. No heavy lifting is required in order to move, rotate or empty a compost-filled bin. Both permanent attachment of the closure devices and removable attachment are possible. Removable attachment allows the easy construction of a compost bin from hardware mesh and other mesh materials. Design elements of the solid-walled version optimize aeration of the compost without turning.
