    Public camping- what is your toilet options

    Hello guys and ladies,

    I love to spend time in public camping spots but unfortunately the toilet makes a big issue for us.

    What do you do for your toilet needs during family camping in public places.
    Thanks

    If the wives come we'll drive to the caravan Park for them to use those facilities.
    We'll also buy stores ,drinks etc from there as well for the convenience
    This is free camping along the Murray north of Shep...

    TD, I assume you drive only for toilet to caravan park, but what about places where you don't find any caravan parks close by

    We bought a chemical toilet after last year's trip up to the Murray, haven't used it yet but they are a good thing.
    Only thing is they do take up a fair bit of space.

    Yep, that's us.
    Before kids it was a hole in the ground. Trying to get the kids to do the same, but was easier to clean the toilet instead if the kids every time they had to go.

    Every tree near campsite on Ulupna Island has unburied crap and the paper to go with it... F**king disgusting so I will stay away from the bushes there.

    Last week we went on a boys night out (two kids 10&8) to Carters Beach hoping to have some fun. The first thing I checked was the toilet and straight away booked in a caravan park for a night, there are so many places in high country which we like to spend some time but unfortunately restricted to caravan parks.
