We got a port-a-potty from Wall Mart with the removable bucket. When done, take to the nearest pit-toilet and dump. If you're really boon-docking, dig a hole (frozen ground .. might be a challenge), and burry it.
Second trailer we did the same thing. We're on our third trailer now. It's suppose to have a heated underbelly. But when winter rolls around, I'm still not taking chances. The end of that dump valve could potentially freeze and that's something I just do not want to deal with.
