Best Portable Toilets

When you’re on the go, these work well when you have to go

A portable toilet is a great accessory for camping or long road trips. Amazon

We love camping, boating, road trips – opportunities to unplug, enjoy the great outdoors, or take in the quaint scenery and timeless treasures of some off-the-beaten-track highway. We don’t love finding a good place for a pit stop. Here are several recommended portable toilet options to keep you on the road or trail, and enjoying your travels a little longer.

Splash-free and odor-free

Its 5.3-gallon tank is larger than most competing models, which means you’ll have to empty it less often. SereneLife

The SereneLife portable toilet provides the combined benefits of convenience and function. It includes a 3.2-gallon clean water tank for flushing – yes, you can flush – up to 50 times with 360-degree flush cleaning. The splash-free rotating pour spout makes cleaning discreet and is protected by a double-sealed drain valve to seal away waste and odors when you’re in between stops and cleanings. Comes in a travel pack for easy toting to and from the boat or campsite.
