First time house buyer, finally have a garden and have a corner to put a compost bin into. Should put a wooden or metal crate or are the plastic barrel kind recommended? I live in Belgium.

Your soil is lovely. I would do a mesh/netting setup instead of barrels if possible. Honestly I wouldn’t really put a compost pile there unless there’s more space beyond that I’m not seeing. putting them in close to buildings tends to draw pests; but if you need to, then ramp up some pest-deterrent plants around the perimeter and go with the mesh. If your worried about things getting into it — they’re going to whatever it is but you won’t be as distressed and birds and whatnot will help you turn it.
