PORTABLE POTTIES

Portable potties differ from basic camping toilets in that they are flushable. They consist of two compartments in addition to the toilet bowl itself. One compartment serves as a holding tank for waste while the other contains fresh water for flushing. There are battery-powered flushing mechanisms, bellows flush systems, and pump flushes. While they still have to be emptied and cleaned, the advantage of portable potties is that any waste and odors are sealed away in the holding tank.

Thetford Porta Potti 465

This model is the only electric, or battery-powered, flush toilet in the Porta Potti line. It also features a locking lid to prevent spills, and a sealed valve keeps odors in the holding tank. The 5.5-gallon waste tank has a level indicator, so you’ll know when it’s time to empty it; the fresh water tank holds four gallons. The high-gloss finish makes for easy cleaning, and the seat and lid are removable, too.

Coleman Self-Contained Portable Toilet

The Coleman portable toilet is constructed of durable, high-density polyethylene. Tanks have seamless, one-piece construction and secure clamps and latches to prevent leaks. It holds 3.2 gallons of fresh water, while the holding tank can handle 2.8 gallons of waste. Comfort and convenience features include a molded seat and a handle for easy carrying. The holding tank is easily removable for emptying and cleaning; the double-seal valve prevents spills while the toilet is apart.

Passport Potty Portable Flush Toilet

The Passport Potty has been designed for long life and easy use. The toilet is made of injection-molded, freeze-resistant thermoplastic, a rugged plastic that will hold up to years of use. The Passport features an extra deep bowl and a lid that snaps shut to prevent vibration and noise. There is also a leak and odor proof seal between the toilet’s two tanks. The 3.2-gallon holding tank is easily detachable for emptying and includes an easy-to-read level indicator. The fresh water tank holds 2.6 gallons. A piston-pump flush sends rinse water in two directions around the bowl for thorough cleaning.
