    Apparently most of the uniform and heavy-duty pallets have to be returned, but they get TONS of pallets of off-sizes and shapes that do not. My Lowe's was happy to give me half a dozen pallets for nothing.

    I knocked a couple of them apart, used pieces to fill in the gaps, and used loops of wire to hook the corners together. And presto...

    "Free" 3'x\4'x3' compost bin. When I get ambitious, I'll go back for 3+ more and make it a two-bin compost bin.

    Adding dog poop, will empty annuals containers when we get our first frost, and whatever else looks like it will rot...
