Two years ago I started a mulch pile. Now it is 2'x3' and over a foot high. At this size I found alternating between piling it up and spreading it out helps control the moisture.
I use a compost bin for the nice stuff like lettuce ends, broccoli stems, broad leaves from the yellowdock and calla lilies constantly popping up, but it's nice to have a good mulch pile to eat up yard trimmings.
