when we went ice fishing to Minnesota they had a bucket with bags , just take a bags outside and they froze , we use the same concept went we went hunting we put the small bag in a big one and last night of the hunt we got a real good fire going and burn all the waste

At my camp I have an unheated outhouse but a heated shower shed. We use the bucket toilet in there, it's heated after all. Tractor Supply here sell pelletized animal bedding. It's super absorbant and has a fresh hay smell. A big handful in the bucket, do your business, liquid and solid. When done another handfull on top, no smell or liquid left. I dig a couple post holes in the fall, lay a board on top and that's where I dump the bucket in the winter. In warm months we just use the two holer...

We did this for years when we had play land before mother sold it. I dug a hole a deep as I could get it and put a sheet of good plywood over the hole with a hole to let the poop fall through. I had a camp toilet which I attached a 6 gallon bucket with the bottom cut out. It worked great and it never filled up enough to worry about re-digging a new one. The only problem was that my niece Anne never could remember to put the paper back in the coffee can so the paper was always wet. Eventually I stopped putting TP out and kept a roll in the truck.

it is call context , lots of reasons to have a bucket toilet.

if your reason is because you have your own land and can dig a hole and put the bucket over it works well

works less well when your in a state park sites all in easy view of each other.

or your in need of a way to go on a job site in the back of your service van - for that we did use trash bags , always had buckets and trash bags in the truck and a dumpster at the shop.

I suppose it could work in the shanty but , you are fishing in that water so take it of the lake

could be your doing a plumbing project and the toilet is not going to be attached to the floor for a few hours or a day.

lots of reasons
