RV tanks use very little water and they dump straight down into the tank. Effectively it's an out house with a vapor barrier. They make a holding tank cart that you can dump into and tow it to the dump station with a golf cart or your truck. It's a much easier solution.
I'm torn here actually, because I'd really like to do the RV style toilet, but on the other hand, I might be living in this full on time and might, if so, actually hook up to a sewer hook up, and so I wouldn't want a holding tank in the loop. Otherwise, I had thought about 5 gallon buckets with a hole saw cut through the lids and regular lids after change outs, but the cart transporter sounds awesome!


Is there a way to have both options and easily transition from one to the other? My wife could benefit from the on board facilities if we were going down the road.
