What Portable toilet have you got and how to make box cover?

[Cruz]

We have finally decided to get a porta-potti bog and I was wondering how people secure it in the van so it doesn't go sliding around whilst driving?

I've also heard people say they made a box with a lid to cover them up if so how do you make one i.e fix the sides together (nails? Glue?) as I've never made anything with wood

Theres blueprints in the wiki.

I haven't got round to building a box seat for mine yet but we made a fitted cover and use a clipped luggage strap screwed to the passenger seat base that keeps it in place and can be used as a seat also {when parked!}.

Our Porta Potty sits behind the passenger seat on an anti slip mat and unless I try to do a hand brake turn, it never moves..

never understood the whole porta potty thing. why would you want to s..t in your bedroom 18 inches from where you cook your breakfast. Whats wrong with a stroll to the toilet block or diggin a hole in the wild?

Best things in the world when your heads spinning in the middle of the night and you're bursting for a slash. Especially when you have 2 dogs that do a runner every time you open the van door.

I too have yet to encounter a situation where I could justify having a porta potty given the drawbacks that chrisburgess has so eloquently mentioned.

My wife brings along an old nappy pail with a good lid on it for an emergency wee in the night, but she usually uses the awning for this purpose rather than resort to weeing in the actual van. I'm fine with this so long as she is happy to do the walk of shame to dump the bucket in the loo in the morning. "Number Twos" are definatly not going in the Shame Bucket though. That would just be wrong.

Yes! Ice cream tubs make a great receptacle for women to use - but always outside the van!

For men a 2 litre Oasis bottle. Has to be Oasis as extra wide neck. some of you may get away with the smaller squash bottles........

At night it is so easy to take a slash outside but when the sun comes up at 4am and your a good 20 minutes away from the bogs on shell island (and the supplied portaloo's are well past their 'expiration') it isn't exactly private for a lady to drop her drawers in front of breakfasting campers.

However, thanks for letting me know that you don't want a toilet in your van even for wet use.

our bogbox also doubles up as somewhere for perry the parrots cage to sit whilst travelling.also the bog came in very handy when we were stuck in a 4hr traffic jam last year..

Seen a Fiamma Bi Pot 34 toilet for under £50. Are these any good?
