I dont have a garden right now, but maybe soon, but I am composting anyways. Cant hurt anything right? It had consisted of kitchen scraps, bunny litter box (poop, urine, carefresh and hay) and some rat poop.
But yesterday I went and bought the Bucket Head from Home Depot, making my composting EASY. I vacuumed the rats cage, it got every single last "raisin" that was stubborn, all the bedding and remains of their toys. (They can shred a wood/wicker doll in a matter of hours.) Then I went to the bunny hutch and vacuumed up EVERYTHING in their cage, it even did the wet parts underneath from the rain.
The bunnies totally were digging their torn apart cage and the vacuum, so major plus there. I do suggest having a nice long, slim tool at the ready for when theres too much hay/wettness or like I have rex mixes, so hair.
Why is it easy simple? Because after a few minutes vacuuming, you dump into your composter, done! My choice is a regular plastic trash can that I roll around a couple times a week. Soon enough, after enough hay and grass clippings, I even get to add worms.
Best $20 I have ever spent! And it didnt take hours of having to clean cages (with 3 rats and 2 bunnies, thats a lot of cleaning.) I just vacuumed, hosed, put down some newspaper and done!
Edited to add: I had wanted a shop vac, because regular vaccums can't handle the load or arent strong enough. But this was a CHEAPER yet strong vaccum! And all you have to have is a bucket (sold for like $3 at home depot.)
