In addition, you can add broken styrofoam with the torn cardboard and shredded paper. Just make sure that you balance when you put these on the compost bin along with food scraps. As for for food items, you can include coffee grounds, peelings, egg shells, corn cobs, used tea bags, melon rinds, fruits and vegetables but not meat, eggs, and dairy products. You can also add yard waste such as grass clippings, leaves and pulled-up plants or weeds.
