What's the first word that comes to mind when you hear RV CASSETTE TOILET? Splish Splash You may need a Bath !

[@telawsonartzy6880]

Splashing Face Maker...... That's why we have a incinerator toilet.

[@janhjorth965]

Through 25 years of RV/caravan camping I have always (incl wife + 2 kids) used the cassette for both #1 and #2 and TP. Through use of the proper environmentally friendly chemicals and the rumbling of the vehicle, (agitation of contents) everything will come out in a steady stream without much unpleasantness.

[@cyoohoos]

Environmentally friendly chemicals??? Say more please

[@powderriver2424]

I’m so happy to hear you’re going on the road full time. We’re seriously thinking about doing the same thing next year. So I’ll be watching your every move. Have fun

[@zynzane9680]

Easy solution, just carry an extra cassette in case. On the new little European RV they have a storage space for extra cassettes on the back, but you could put it in a large trash bag just to be careful, and in the exterior storage.

I just found you on UTUBE the other night. Love watching,I want to thank you for filming our beautiful country,that I will never get to see. You two are awesome. Hope ur kitties enjoy as much as you all do. Be safe and enjoy. I'll be there with you!

Thanks so much Lemon! We are excited to share our adventures with you. Do you RV as well?

[@indy264]

You two are so funny. Thanks for your humor and your expertise in OTR Rving. I’ve enjoyed every episode .

You guys explain things so well; plus you're very entertaining doing it, I just love you guys.

Thanks so much Doris! We are glad you are enjoying our videos. Do you have an RV too?

[@dorisweems1510]

@@LetsTurnItUpWorld No I don't have an RV but I wish that I had one. I can see myself living in one, but I am 78 years old now so it's a little late for me. I'm living vicariously through you guys and I am having a ball.

[@dominiquewoodings7058]

I'm in the midst of planning full time living with my child, and i LOVE your videos the most! You're so beautifully personable and you're literally the most honest and helpful I've come across so far. Hopefully we'll catch y'all on the road someday👉

I love the cassette toilet. I learned to separate the liquid from the solid. I drink ALOT of water and it fills up fast. The separation allows longer usage with the cassette before dumping. Then i use the tip of using a spray bottle to spray the toilet on stream instead of using the reserved water. I don't put the paper in it either. The only negative i have with that particular bathroom is that the toilet is plastic. For the cost of that model, it really should have better quality essentials. I would sacrifice having cheaper cabinet handles for a better toilet.

[@janhjorth965]

For added comfort. Buy a 2nd cassette…that will more than double your time, since you can allow the first one to fill ‘to the brim’, and only play ‘safe’ on every other cassette . Thetford (the manufacturers) even provide neat/discrete carriers that you can use for the storage in your ‘garage area’.

[@waynec2962]

you should try dumping one of those things with 3 day old poop lol you might reconsider your thought's on cassette toilets lol although the guy from The Fit RV came up with an attachment that fits on the end of the dump tube that easily attaches a sewer hose making life easier to dump at a dumping station 👍

[@javierbernal2408]

Can't wait for those adventures

[@paulakay5981]

A “homemade” bidet system is a bottle with an angled tip, like what hair stylists use to apply color. My sister told me this tip after we installed a bidet during the great toilet paper shortage of 2020. Her option costs a lot less than our bidet, and she said it works fine.

[@LetsTurnItUpWorld]

Thanks for sharing!! That’s interesting!

[@byRosenfeldt]

Having had cassette toilets in campers for almost 20 years here in Europe it is very easy... The best eco environment in the tank you will get doing both no 1 and 2 + paper... then you can add some additive in.... I do not use the chemicals anymore, but use normal clothes washing powder/liquid, that works wonderful and keeps the tank clean too.... Good luck with your new RV life

[@LetsTurnItUpWorld]

Thank you Berit for the tips. So, you do both 1 and 2 with paper and use clothes washing detergent? Any brand or type work better for you? Thanks again!

[@byRosenfeldt]

@@LetsTurnItUpWorld oh yes.... I mostly use Ariel 3in1 pods .... or the same brand in Liquid detergent, because I like the "smell"... no 2 and paper is being turned into nothing, and you get lovely bobbles whey your empty 🙂... ( this talk, it is a bit funny. Not something many talk about, but it is everyday life for a RV user)

[@LetsTurnItUpWorld]

Great, thanks! Yes, normal RVer talk lol!

[@Evelyn_McMillan]

Hi Dave & Tanya, you two are a well of knowledge on how the dreaded "business procedure" is processed by the RV, as well as the disposal of the said business. What goes in, must come out 🤣This is a crucial part of RV living that people need to be aware of when they travel. It is not like you would find a bathroom around the corner on the road. You two take care now on your return trip and as always, be safe out there! 😀❤🙏

[@reginadandridge4618]

Hi my name is Carrie I use to live in montana.there is a couple of spots in north Dakota you might like to see one is makosia off of I-94 around Roosevelt park.plus there is also a road that the state has given this iron artist to do iron art pieces.about twenty miles it's really cool some are three and four story's high.dream catcher's made of iron

[@LetsTurnItUpWorld]

Thanks Carrie for the recommendations, we really appreciate it! We will need to check out those places when we get to North Dakota. The iron art pieces sound really cool. We overnighted at a really cool spot in South Dakota, Porter Sculpture Park, that is worth checking out as well if you get the chance!

To make it live longer with your cassette toilet rub a little vaseline on the hook where the latch comes on the slider thing the close it up

So how long will you two keep traveling in Desert Snow

[@ondreacounts2556]

I just found y'alls channel, I subscribed & now I'm binge watching y'all's vids. I think you both are awesome & I gotta ask, Tanya, do you got any brothers that are single? I live just outside of Youngstown, OH. there's not much right around here specifically but Ohio does have a few things that are cool to see but they're near places like Cleveland, Cincinnati, Toledo, Sandusky, & Columbus. Especially near Columbus there's a huge State Park area called Hocking Hills, that place is a must to go visit. There's so much beauty around that area & things to do. I can make a few suggestions of places around the USA cuz I've done some traveling, which is something I love to do. I'd say make sure you go to Savannah, GA., New Orleans, LA., the Outer Banks of NC., namely Buxton & Cape Hatteras. And believe it or not West Virginia is stocked w/beautiful scenic places as well as Tenn. The Gulf Coast of Florida, Destin & Panama City, those areas were spared from Hurricane Ian. I'll shut up for now, lol, there's a few more places I could mention but I'll leave well enough alone. Be safe out there in your travels & I'm looking forward to seeing y'alls next shared adventure.

We have been considering downsizing from our current 40' Newmar Dutch Star to the Ekko but there's no way I am dealing with a cassette toilet. The first thing I would do is convert it to a composting toilet, specifically the OGO. We are very spoiled with two bathrooms in our coach. Everything gets flushed down. I know the cassettes are limited in the quantity they can hold but I refuse to give up the ability to put toilet paper into the toilet.
