Welcome to the world of Monty!
First thing’s first - we’re so excited and grateful to welcome you into our community of composters as one of the earliest Monty Monitor owners! On this page, we’ve put together everything you could need to get started and keep going with your newest compost companion so let’s kick off.

Easy set-up in three simple steps
Step 1
Unbox your Monitor and wireless charger
The Monty Monitor packaging has been intuitively designed so that all it takes to open up is removing the lid! To get to charger and charging cable, remove the Monitor and remove the insert - both these boxes are stored within the insert. Oh and by the way ... all the packaging can go straight into your compost.

How You Help
Help us improve Monty
As a brand new innovation, we’ve got lots of bugs (pardon the pun) to work out. While we’ve tried our best to figure them out, we’re limited in what we can do which is why we’re always looking for feedback.
If you have the time to share how Monty has worked for you, please get in touch and help us improve and enhance the compost tools of tomorrow.
