Built for small spaces
The planner is designed around worm bins, tumblers, bokashi buckets, and small stationary bins. It adjusts timelines for the containers that actually fit in a kitchen, on a balcony, or beside a shed.
About CompostRelay
About this site
CompostRelay: Small-Space Compost Relay Planner is a focused, independent web utility at side-yard-compost-relay.hub2.day. It helps apartment and small-yard households plan a low-odor compost relay between collection, turning, and use so kitchen scraps actually become garden food instead of a smell complaint.
What it helps you do
The site is designed for rentals, condos, and small-yard homeowners who want to compost kitchen waste but are limited by space, smell worries, and unclear turning schedules. It helps you:
- Plan a simple relay between collecting scraps, turning, and using finished compost.
- Choose a cadence that fits your space and container size.
- Reduce common odor and nuisance issues with practical timing and handling tips.
Why a focused tool
General gardening advice often assumes large yards, dedicated bins, and flexible schedules. This site is intentionally narrow: it focuses on small-space composting where every step matters and mistakes are more noticeable. By keeping the scope tight, the planner can be more practical for renters, condo residents, and small-yard homeowners.

What this project is for
CompostRelay exists because most compost guides assume you have a big backyard, a pitchfork, and plenty of space to get things wrong. If you live in an apartment, a condo, or a house with a small side yard, the usual advice does not fit.
Focused on smell and timing
Two things stop most small-space households: smell and unclear schedules. The relay format gives you a week-by-week plan so you know exactly when to feed, when to turn, and when to stop.
Season aware
Summer heat speeds things up. Winter cold slows them down. The planner adjusts the relay length and adds notes for each season so you are not guessing.
Return each season
You can save your bin profile in the browser and come back in spring, summer, fall, or winter to adjust the plan. No account, no tracking, no email required.
Assumptions and limitations
The timelines in this planner are estimates based on typical small-bin conditions. Your actual results will depend on what you put in the bin, how often you turn it, the moisture level, and the temperature where you keep it. This project is not a substitute for local waste regulations, landlord rules, or professional advice for large-scale composting.
