Why it matters

Piles of dry debris build up around the yard

Leaves, brush, and cardboard pile up after cleanup, and open ground burns spread ash and embers. A vented barrel contains the burn and keeps debris off the lawn.

  • ▪  Piled debris. Leaves and brush collect after cleanup.
  • ▪  Open burn. Embers scatter on bare ground.
  • ▪  Ash mess. Ash spreads across the yard.
  • ▪  Uncontrolled. Wind can push flames outward.

What it does

Contains dry debris and feeds airflow

The steel drum holds the waste, rows of vent holes draw air from the sides, and the removable lid controls smoke and keeps embers inside.
