Incinerators

Why Choose a Garden Incinerator?

If your compost bin is overflowing and you’re looking for another method to dispose of garden waste, feed the fire with a garden incinerator! Using a fire bin is a quick way to reduce waste to ash, especially thick weeds and branches which aren’t always good for garden compost. In turn, the ash can be used as a natural fertiliser for use on your flower beds!

Features to Consider With a Fire Bin

The size of your garden incinerator depends on how much garden waste you get through, and we have a range of sizes to suit any space. A secure-fitting lid is vital to keep most of the ash and airborne particles inside the fire bin, and holes at the bottom to keep the airflow at maximum – this will make sure your waste burns quickly and evenly!

FAQs

How do garden incinerators work?

Place your dry garden waste inside the incinerator and light from the bottom, making sure the lid is attached. The design of fire bins means it encourages oxygen to flow freely through the garden waste, making it burn hotter and faster, whilst the chimney also lets out smoke. Once it’s cooled completely, your garden waste will have turned into ash – much more manageable!

Can garden incinerators be used to burn household waste?

You should only use your garden incinerator for garden waste such as dead foliage, leaves, weeds, and twigs, as well as untreated wood. Burning other materials could cause a reaction and release harmful chemicals, so find other means for disposing of these!

How should ashes from a garden incinerator be disposed of?

Ash from garden waste is high in carbon, perfect for using on the compost heap or as a mulch on flower beds or on the lawn. Wait for your fire bin to cool down completely before removing the ash.
