All other materials are recyclable or biodegradable (I've seen claims of 83% biode­gradable or recyclable but couldn’t verify). By taking the waste bag and positioning it under a toilet seat, it can also be used in portable camp toilets and commode buckets.

Our double bag system has an inner waste bag that rolls up when filled, the attached heavy duty outer bag has a leak-proof double zip-lock to make sure what's inside the bag, stays inside. At 5 inches from the top edge (which has the two curved corners), make a line all the way across the width of the fabric.

We actually rarely use campsites, it's mostly festival type events or wild camping in which case I am sorry but I go for a wee in the bushes and rinse with water. Still, we've never had an issue with the internal bag or the outer bag–the ones that actually hold waste. In case you’re wondering, she always chooses crafting/sewing/designing over mopping/dusting/wiping base boards……but bathrooms/laundry/full bellies are always attended to. Many stitch types will work but by doing a medium length and width zig zag stitch (like I did below), it is easier to ensure that you catch the back side when you sew it on. Cat litter might be an idea for a weekend but we are going to france in summer and so would be heavy and take up loads of space.

Unlike a 5-gallon bucket system like the Luggable Loo, it's also at a higher height, which makes doing it a little easier. The very idea of cat litter, disposable nappies into the bin etc etc is just overkill, not very friendly to the planet and just a little bit gross! Additionally, waste bags are popular – especially in conjunction with portable toilets – for campers and overlanders. I may try some other cat litter, more of a sustainable source wood chip one, then add a handful of the crystals.

But unlike just any old garbage bag, the Green Elephant Portable bags really fit a 5-gallon bucket/portable commode. The Mylar transport bag and the handy wipe foil pouch are made of barrier film material (multiple layers of different types of material) and are not recyclable.

I’m thrilled to have Cami from Tidbits here again today, sharing her clever little “Doodie Bag” with us.In our daughters fold up potty we use bags and huge sanitary liners they do the job and they are cheap! To keep odor down and reduce the mess of bringing the contents to a waste facility, you're going to need to add your own gel. In 1958, we founded our company on a belief that we should leave no trace while exploring our world. What we didn't like: must tie your own knot, outer packaging can be less sturdy (but the bag itself is fine!
