Yes we are starting off with bathroom needs! Where you will you pee when you have no water and the sewer systems are down? But you have septic? Humm do you have water to waste on that? Probably not.
So you can buy one all line, hit your favorite sporting goods store ( we like Sportco in Fife)or believe it or no Target has them (click for deluxe). There are supplies you will want to go without them. Also you can purchase your own bucket and seat separately but the seats alone range between $12-$14 so why not do a one stop shop?
Supplies you may want to go with this are:
- liners ( HEAVY LINERS you so don't want a whole in theses things. GROSS!!)
- Ties-to close the bags.
- household chlorine bleach or other sanitizing chemicals
- toilet paper
- latex/rubber gloves
- air freshener/deodorizer (optional but you REALLY might want it)
Ok so you have it and there is an emergency. How do you use it?
Place a liner between the seat and bucket (duh huh?). Go to the bathroom (yeah that is what it is for). Add some bleach or chemical. Keep lid closed between uses (another duh). When it has been used to your comfort level securely close bag. Use the bucket to carry it out to a holding container out side your home.
Container: any container with a tight fitting lid, such as a trash can (might line this with a large heavy trash bag). After an emergency contact (or this may be on the news) city officials( I tried to find a phone # for this but...) to find out how dispose of this waste. If the emergency situation goes on for an extended period of time you may need to dig a whole at least 2-3 feet deep to dispose of you waste. This needs to be at least 50 feet away from your home and all water sources.
