Cassette Toilet

I am getting closer to selling my Fifth Wheel TH and going with a Truck Camper. My DW, while she likes to camp just can not see doing it for longer that a week at a time (or shorter). For me I would pick up and leave now if I could.

So, here is my question of the day. How do those of you that have a Cassette type Toilet like them? Are the a pain to dump and also how long can you go between having to dump it? Also which type of Toilet would you rather have in a TC?

If my plans work out I plan on heading to Sturgis this year. The camp ground that I am looking does not have hook ups. I know that most would use the port potties at but not good for me. I am still recovering from Colon Cancer Surgery so I have the need to have MY OWN HEAD available at all times.

Thanks Everyone

  • We had one in a pop-up years ago and it worked out very well. If I was looking for a pickup camper that wouldn't be a deal breaker.
  • Be sure you consider the weight of a full cassette. Is cassette access port in the TC at a comfortable height for you to lift this much weight? If not, you will have to dump before it is full.
  • I have a cassette toilet and absolutely would not have anything else. How long between dumps? -- well the answer is contained in the question.
    Very easy to empty and clean anywhere there is a regular toilet, or in an emergency, a hole in the ground.
