I own two tumblers They take a lot of work & mess out of composting. It takes forever to turn stuff into compost. I had to add compost starter to get results. But you just have to spin the compost every day or two and water occasionally. But what to do with all the compostables that accrue during the intervening months?

Trench Compost.
When my heaps are full, I just trench compost. Worms, plants, love them regardless and it breaks down pretty quick
