Product Information

They can be heavy when full, especially if you go for a camp loo with a large waste holding tank, you can pop them on a rolling trolley though if the carrying weight is a real problem. This folds up for easy transport and usually includes a seat and waste bag. • Flushable camping toilet:

The 7.5l urine container should be emptied daily where possible – not in inland waterways where the nitrogen acts as food for algae. The time taken to fill the solids tank will vary with use. On weekend boats, the solids tank might last a season. On liveaboard boats it might need to be emptied every three to four weeks. Although you’ll find all sorts of pop-up and emergency toilets, ranging from stools with a bag hanging underneath, to folding cardboard boxes and chamber pot style containers, for family campers, I believe there are only really 2 sensible camp toilet choices. A porta-potty toilet is unsuitable for our homes’ plumbing. But renting is so important when some of our programs are held. Significantly, when we arrange a program for many people to come to our house, we have to use this toilet. You must wear a mask on your face and gloves on your hands. These types of protective equipment will keep you safe from any infection and intolerable odors.As compact and portable as this toilet looks, you will be amazed at how effectively it performs. The Camco 41544 travel toilet is a sleek and lovely toilet that will be easy to use and dispose of. Like Luggable Loo, this is a 5.3 gallons toilet with a detachable tank and features a 4-gallon flush tank capacity. The pumping-flushing action is very effective as it cleans the bowl leaving it clean after every use. In addition, it has a swivel dumping elbow that makes waste removal to be fast and easy. Camco is the best portable toilet for the van.

Some nice features include a transport roll for easy transportation when full, swivelling drainage pipe and fill level indicator. So how does it work? Well firstly it has two waste compartments – one for ‘solids’ and one for ‘liquids’ – you could call them number 1 and number 2 if you prefer! Compartment ‘2’ should be lined with a biodegradable liner and after use sprinkled with sawdust or peat or similar – this helps suppress nasty niffs and starts the composting process (a natural degradation of waste by bacteria). Urine gets pumped out with a diaphragm pump but could go to a bottle if in a boatyard. Poop goes to separate container with bag and I use sawdust. No smell and easy to use and dispose of,” says Andrew. With a seat height at 45cm, it’s on the large side, but that could also be a bonus for extended stays and those not able to squat down low. The Sanitation Equipment Visa model 248 has a 24-liter capacity with a freshwater tank and a tank waste. Every tank has its level indicator that lets you know when to refill water or dispose of waste. It has an easy-to-use replaceable piston pump with a two-directional rinse for enhanced bowl surface coverage. The holding tank vent is easy to clean and makes discharging to be simple as well. For proper cleaning, you can easily detach the spout storage compartment. It is the best portable toilet for RV, Camping, or Boating.

Maintaining your camping toilet

But the times they are a-changing. The Covid-19 pandemic has forced everybody to reassess their hygiene habits in a world where it seems like more people than ever are camping or pursuing outdoor hobbies such as fishing, hunting or mountain biking.

So, whether you’re weekending in a marina, alone on an anchorage, DIY-ing in a boatyard or camping with a trailer-sailer there’s a portable toilet for you. Green chemicals’ don’t contain formaldehyde so are safer and more environmentally friendly than blue. The chemicals come in bottle or tablet form, and need changing after around 10 days. Do you need special toilet paper for portable toilets?

Should you get a camping toilet?

CampingGaz, the ubiquitous supplier of butane/propane camping gas, sells a range of camping gear, including the Campingaz 20L portable toilet. Space is a premium in boats and tents, so if you’re willing to squat a little lower, and empty/ fill the tanks more frequently, the Thetford Porta Potti 335 is about as compact as you can get for a flushing loo.
