Harry some folded carpet on the top would help keep your heap/bins warm too, I have always used old carpet, cheap and works. My son tried to put some ready for a tip run this week and I had to explain how valuable it is, good job I caught it in time :)

No carpet allowed on the site. I could use canvas or a tarp.

That's a shame.  I understand about the rubber backed stuff but something to insulate your bins would help.

5 x 80 L bins with holes in and one full of water should look tidy

My dustbin composters certainly seem far more alive than my open heap. Absolutely writhing with worms and other little critters

We managed to get our hands on cutains from an artic lorry that was being rebranded.
