Car Camping / Trip Reports / Photos / Buildouts / “Overland” / Expedition Rigs Area (homeless?)

It's something I talked over with the wife quite a bit. I've been using the Reliance portable toilets with the bags. The bags aren't as bad as they sound. Once they are all rolled up and sealed right, theres no leaking or problems throwing them into the trash bag. The only things is we use it for #2 and the rest is in nature.

We looked into the 5gal portable RV style toilets, but while you can do both in it, they need to be dumped later into a regular toilet. That's where things get stinky. They also need help "flushing" depending on where the dooty lands, AKA you have to wipe the bowl sometimes.

So the bags aren't too bad.

 

yes that's where i bught it --where'd that come from ?

 

He also carries a selection of trailers with tt's

 

Thanks yep now I'll have 2 things to mod

 

I picked up one if these for a rafting trip a few years ago (required on most rivers now) and use it quite a bit on long camping trips. Everything fits into 2 20mm ammo boxes and is easy to clean up at any rv park. Just make sure to get some spray and powder for the stench.

@Casper66 how far are you from Lynchburg? I'll be up there around aug. 24, to help my son move back in to liberty. If I have time and you don't mind, I'll like to check out your trailer setup.

 

At that price and size, why not something like this?

I'm only about 2 hours away from Lynchburg. Sure we can meet up at the very least meet in the middle in Charlottesville. Hopefully we'll have a couple of trips with it under our belts by then and can give you even more feedback. Always nice to meet other TW'ers

 

Those kind aren't sealable. They won't pass the requirements for most backcountry river trips

 

That one looks pretty good, I got the NRS one as it's a bit more river friendly. The last thing I wanted in the rapids was a few days of shit flying out at me. I also only paid the pro form price so that was nice.

 

I see. I didn't take having it in the rapids into account, just in the vehicle for land trips.

 

Bumpy roads might sling some shit too

 

I'll PM you when I know if I'll have time to meet up.

 

That's good I'm still out of work recovering from an operation IDK when I'll be going back to work (if) I'll do my best to make myself available. Liberty is a great school my youngest is at VT now

 

I hope your recover is smooth.

 

Second shoulder operation in a year. This was a retear so no not healing nearly as well. 4 Docs so far say find different line of work. Easier said than done

 

What do you for work?

 

autobody, paint, welding, and fabrication more of the welding and fabrication now but after 30 years of this stuff it's worn my shoulders out

 

Pool cleaning is not a direction to go for you. Alot of shoulder movement involved.

do you work for company or is it your own?

 

I work for the airport authority up here that governs 2 major airports doing fleet maintenance
