Camp Toilet
« on: Yesterday at 06:04:04 PM »
Ok, so here is the question.  What do you all recommend for a wall tent toilet?  There are so many options.  Tired of leaning/hanging off logs.  Call me Murtaugh, "Too old for this SH*T

Build a nice comfy throne and sit it under a nice big hunting  blind.  Put a little buddy heater in and a Christmas tree scent thingy to keep it fresh.  Ours is situated over a tote that that is double lined with contractor bags.  At the end of the trip... zip tie the bags, put the lid on the tote and head for home.  Bags go in the garbage.....easy peasy.

We use an old metal drum that I screwed a toilet seat to the bottom of the drum.  We dig a hole about 18” deep and it gets you the perfect seat height. Then we set up a shower tent from cable as over the top of it.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

We have used several over the years in a pop up blind. We line down to the hole with a garbage bag we cut the bottom out. ( for those taco nights). We have had wood ones that fold up. Medical chair ones, plastic barrels and our longest one was the seat portion of a chair, we had it 20 years until one of the guys drove over it.

We are currently looking for a new one.

Following for your ideas.

Ya know we could have some fun here.  I am thinking of building one like Jrebel.

How could we race that thing out. Lights, recessed motion lights, mood color lights,

What kind of ideas?  Heated seat?

Got a medical chair toilet at a yard sale for $12... She wanted $20... Took the catch basin out of course... Dig a nice hole and bury it when we leave...I can take it apart so it packs flat and takes about 10 minutes to set up with hole dig... Light, and takes up minimal room which is important to us... Don't actually use it very often... I usually have to go while out hunting not at night at camp...
I love you... I really do...

Another pointer to make your camp toilet a little more luxury. Keep a torch next to it. When it is cold, torch the seat a little bit and it will warm it right up for you before you take care of business.

So, what is the legality of dumping human waste in the trash? Don't you have to follow bio-waste requirements?

Well no expert on this and don’t practice it. But there are thousands of RVs on the road nation wide that have composting toilets. And most of those folks have the standard practice of depositing their bags of waste in rest area garbage cans.

I know of no law against it and I am not aware of any direction being given by RV industry on the topic.

My opinion is a hunter putting his crap in the trash once a year is far better than folks craping  on the the city streets and parks.

But we digress.

I wasn't aware that the rv industry had been selling units with composting toilets. I thought they still had the old-style black water tanks. That you had to find a RV dump for.  I do feel sorry for the state workers who get to pick this up.
Totally unaware of what they are  handling.

I hope you are using biodegradable bags.
