How to start a business making custom compost tumblers and bins for small yards?

Custom compost bins are in demand as urban composting grows. Steps:1. Design – Create durable, space-saving tumblers (plastic/metal). 2. Manufacture – Tie-up with local fabricators or use rotational molding units. 3. Target Market – Urban households, gated communities, schools. 4. Licensing – No heavy licenses needed, just GST registration. 5. Sales – Sell via Amazon, Flipkart, or eco-stores. Workshops + demo sessions increase adoption. You can charge ₹2,000–₹8,000 per bin depending on size.

I built and sold compost bins in my city. Biggest lesson: ease of use matters more than cost. People drop off if bins are smelly or hard to rotate. Add ventilation + handles to make them user-friendly. That’s what customers value most.
