bucket toilet

Primitive waste receptacle

A bucket toilet is a simple sanitation system using a bucket or container to collect human waste, typically with a seat placed on top.

Common in camping, emergencies, off-grid living, and areas without plumbing: We kept a bucket toilet in the garage during the renovation.

Some designs use sawdust or other material to reduce odor and aid composting.
