When I go camping, I usually stuff the used toilet paper in a Ziploc baggie and wait till I have come back to civilization to properly dispose of it.

How should I pick the right place to relive myself?

If there are no proper toilet facilities around you should relive yourself away from the camp area. The most environmentally friendly way to do this is to relive into some kind of container and dispose if it appropriately.

How does a porta- loo work?

The waste is notcarried to a sewer but instead is carried to an attached holding tank. Theholding tank is hidden inside the bottom of the toilet. Inside the holding tankare chemicals that deodorize waste and break down solid waste and toilet paper.

What is the best way to dispose of human deposits when camping?

If you have to 'go' in the bush and there are no toilets nearby, there are two options:

  • Carry out human waste in a container such as poo tube, pot or reseal-able bags this is the most sensible and environmentally friendly option in places such as caves, rocky areas, alpine areas and snow.
  • Dig a shallow hole in the ground making sure it's well away from water courses and where others will not discover it.
