Great Shop Toilet Too
I have two Luggable Loos...one in my camping trailer and the other in my workshop, which has no plumbing. Using the approach described in The Humanure Handbook: A Guide to Composting Human Manure, Third Edition and peat moss as my cover material, here's how I use the Luggable Loo:
1. Turn down the top edge of a brown paper bag and place it in the bucket.
2. Break up some peat moss and put about 3"or 4" in the bottom of the brown paper bag.
3. Place the seat/cover on the bucket.
4. Use whenever Nature calls.
5. Cover each deposit with peat moss.
6. When the brown paper bag gets about half full, fold down the top, remove it, and bury or compost it.
7. Rinse the bucket with vinegar.
8. Repeat starting at Step 1.
By using peat moss, I have never had an excess of moisture to contend with, nor have I ever had a problem with odor. If you get a seven gallon bucket for greater height, you can even use this as a bedside commode and it will be much more pleasant than the usual type of bedside commode.
