Safely disposing of toilet waste ?

[Stonemags76]

That’s great when you reach out of bed in the night for a swig

A friend of mine did the Marathon de Sables - reached out of bed for a drink in the night, & took a swig of the man next to her pee bottle!

 

[Northernraider]

With a trap on the basins etc?

Yeah probably

 

[Liverpoollass]

Sorry but clearly you are doing something wrong, after countless trips I’ve emptied my cassette into my downstairs loo and never had any splash back out of the bowl and definitely none on the floor or the walls

Perhaps it’s yourself that needs to see the doc

Wot he sed

I've mentioned it on here before, a visit to the Centre for Alternative Technology in Wales quite a few years ago, revealed that they grow tomato plants in urine which is separated by various methods in the public toilets. The tomato plants are bare rooted in the urine ...

I didn't taste one though as they weren't ripe but was assured they tasted no different than those grown in soil.

Many years ago, as a driver when I demonstrated a variety of HGV's.
I was employed by a company called Shelvoke & Drury to demonstrate a gully emptier to a Rural Council, some of the best tomatoes, which they claim grew naturally from seed in the effluent, (just like the very expensive coffee that has passed through a monkey) grew, in the sand, on their sewage settling beds, and yes, after a good washing, they did taste delicious!

Did you mean the very expensive coffee that has passed through a Civet? A small mammal of the genus Viverra. I am not aware of any monkeys that eat coffee beans but am willing to be educated if you do know of some.

Edit: I think I need to educate myself better, apparently howler, spider and wooly monkeys eat coffee berries but these are not collected and used for making coffee but aid in propagation. Every days a school day

Crikey ,that’s a truck name I haven’t heard in many a year.
I used to sell suspension and transmission parts for them to many councils in East Anglia.

I'm amazed that so many of the men can empty a cassette without splashing but when taking a pee apparently cannot aim well

So I have been informed

Any small mammal is close enough for an old man of little brain.
As I said the the other day, it unkind to mock the afflicted!

Apparently there is a workers group and they have just celebrated S&D's 100yrs anniversary at Letchworth and the Motor Museum near Coventry?

I would also only use the product in the image or equivalent as this broadens your options of ethical disposal.

Peeking ... had to get my 'Sherlock Holmes' magnifying glass out to even find 'it'!

 

[The Old Man]

By wild camp i presume free camp, ie no charge, we use sites typically every four nights so we can empty toilet and refill clean water

Some sites now allow for a small charge entry just to dump and refill , some even give you a few hours and allow access to showers

Never put toilet waste anywhere that isn’t authorised for it, certainly never a roadside drain

Virtually every public toilet on the NC500 route in Scotland says 'no emptying of motorhome toilets'.

The same as the council toilets in North Norfolk

Just as it should be when there are plenty of campsites nearby that one can visit, it's the shortage of public toilets for visitors that is becoming more of a problem!

When we had the contract to build a lot of Port Solent in the late 80s we had a massive pile of ballast delivered to use, it had been dredged from the Solent obviously near an outfall as come the warmer weather there were loads of tomatoes growing in the stone.
tomato pips washed down the sewers

I manage to do it regularly in the downstairs bog at home,

Safer to use a drain outside the house - often the one near the downstairs bog or kitchen; but check as most are just soak aways for roof rainwater.

Fortunately I have a drain in the path at the back of my house and it's conveniently close to the garden tap

I cut my home soil pipe vent stack and installed a 45 deg branch tee, replaced the stack pipe and plugged the branch with a stop bung with cupboard handle to pull the bung out. Pull the bung dump the gunk and job ('Jobbies') done. Right next to my garden hose as it happened..... Happy days!

Surely you have seen what happens if a high pressure hose pipe gets dropped when running full bore? Basically the same, if you don't get a firm grip with both hands; it whips about like a snake

Boa or grass?

Our house drains into our own "fosse toutes eaux", so everything, WC, washing machine, dishwasher, bathroom & kitchen ends up in that. Most domestic products are "fosse friendly", but we put a sachet of powdered enzyme down the loo every Monday and that keeps things ticking over. Mrs Frexpt also uses the green bottled Domestos which, again causes no problems for septic tanks.

When we get back from a trip, the contents of our cassette goes down the manhole in our front garden and straight into the fosse.

I think we've lost the op, he's not been seen since he started this thread over 6 weeks ago. To be honest I can't believe that he even considered putting toilet waste down a roadside drain as an option.
I wonder how many others have actually done it.

 

[Nanniemate]

Boa or grass?

Earth worm

 

[InvictaMoto]

In France we had to use the loos at a roadside air on the N154 near Evreux as we had the Thetford Red Light.... They were such a disgusting state that had I poured the cassette contents on the floor, no onr would have noticed except it was greenish-blue in colour....

We tend to use Camping-Car Park Aires and local free aires and dispose of the grey and black waste there but this occasion we were covering a long distance with no access to either. Most Camping-Car Park aires have a five hour park up tariff that allows use of the service areas...

I'm a massive fan of using public services for disposal. I am pleased to say that in 20 yrs of MH'ing I've never, not once, used a roadside drain to dispose of toilet contents.
