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. Waterless options: These are environmentally friendly and require no chemicals, but they have limitations. These are the detergents that sanitise the areas around waste to kill bacteria. They also create a barrier between the toilet users and the waste by removing the odour and solidifying the waste. Fragrances Not cleaning your portable toilets can also have repercussions for the environment, especially if any of the fluid leaks into the surrounding area. Because of the chemicals contained in a portaloo, the vegetation and ground surrounding the toilet could be damaged. The main thing to bear in mind is the size of the waste tank. The cheapest and smallest camp toilets will have a relatively small waste tank, and whilst this might be suitable for a small family to use on a short weekend break, you’ll generally need something with a bigger capacity if more than a couple of people will be using it.Blue dye is used to cover the sight of the waste so that the toilet users don’t need to look at it when they flush.

The composting toilet is an eco-friendly alternative to the classic chemical toilet. It’s a ‘dry toilet’ so requires no water or chemicals. Also referred to as a ‘urine-diverter’, composting toilets work by separating solids from liquids, directing each to a specific container for easier management and odour control. If you’re camping in a caravan or motorhome, you’ll find that many have an in-built toilet in the washroom. These toilets are generally made by one of two manufacturers, Thetford or Dometic.Thetford have a long history of making portable toilets, and operation of the Qube 335 is very simple as might be expected.
