How often will I need to empty Thetford Porta potti?

[Nesting Zombie]

Not a good idea I bag mine one poo at a time not a great big cassette full.

Not THAT much of a differents, Wether say two people deposited 3 days worth in a bin or one person deposited a week's worth, Same ish result. The bins are probably only emptied once a week anyway !.

The proper & correct thing to do is go to council and ask for doggy bags which are free,do what you need then as other do just turf it in a hedge.:scared::lol-053::lol-053:

One of the rangers at the Hermitage just outside Dunkeld actually stated that he would prefer if people simply kicked the dog poo off the side of the footpath because it would break down naturally a helluva lot faster than the wee plastic bags that are dangling all over the bushes and trees. I hasten to add that this was a long time ago shortly after the laws were first introduced.

I love the fact that we are now discussing time and volumes it's a bit like on a Lecky thread discussing ampage and wattage PMSL.

Well I draw the line at WCers sh!ting on footpaths and flicking it into the bushes and I don't care what the ranger says.

Ditto, I agree, keep it off the bushes, try and get it up the trees.

I'm amazed we are beginning to discuss how the topic changes during a discussion. I remember some friends of mine and I sat very VERY late into the night trying to remember how we got from talking about one thing and finished off talking about something else many hours later so we went backwards through our discussion and what was really surprising, we could remember almost EVERY topic change. This was in the days before online forums and computator thingies.

Hi,
sorry to have to ask, but I can't actually find this answered anywhere and am just looking for a rough idea.

So, for one person using it just for no.2 how long would it be between empties if using one with a 21 litre waste tank (the largest size)?

Also, I assume I wouldn't have an issue with smell if I built a gasketed box to keep it in?

cheers!

BTW, my most sincere apologies for hijacking your thread and going off topic.

I find this thread a bit strange,surely common sense here?
Depends how often it's used.
Depends where you can empty (in designated areas)
Weather ,hotter it gets more often empty.
Depends on roads if it's swishing about odours again not pleasant.
Empty ours at any chance I can even if there's not a great amount in it.

 

[Wooie1958]

Empty ours every day ( normally first thing every morning ) without fail and sometimes twice if needed.

Why do people not do number 2s in toilet? I know I prefer emptying when it's 2 free but not much difference to the volume and roses isn't that bad a smell.

Well they could put led lights in the bags and then turf so would look like xmas trees.
