this may be a silly question but: where do you dispose of the bag when you are done? do you just throw this in the dumpsters?

From the web-site..
" When buried or disposed of in an approved waste receptacle, the bags break down quickly, preventing damage to the environment or waste-disposal units. Additional Biodegradable Waste Bags are also available. "

I use the Pett toilet all the time. Here is a thread explaining my setup.
Portable camping showers thread


You throw them out with the trash. It is a thick ziplock bag that you place into the mesh "hole" that is formed that has another bag that you drape either over the toilet seat or under it. When finished using, just twist second bag, and push into the ziplock one. Toss

The Reliance Double Doodie bags that you can purchase at Walmart work well also. They do not supply you with TP or disinfectant.

Do not use regular trash type bags though.....trust me on this one.

I don't have that tent. I have a Cabela's shower tent and a Paha Que Tee pee for privacy. That tent isn't tall/roomy enough for my needs.

I use a thetford potty. Cost is around $60 and I just take it down to the dump station and dump it. It holds about 2 gallons of waster water and 1 1/2 of water to flush. Put a bag of tank treatment in it and no bag to deal with
