Shop Composting Toilets
Composting toilets are an alternative to traditional cassette systems for caravans, campervans and tiny homes. They separate liquid and solid waste, which reduces odour and means you do not need to deal with chemical treatments or dump points as often. This collection includes composting toilets from several brands along with the accessories and consumables that go with them.
Choosing a Composting Toilet for Your Caravan
The main factors to consider are the size of the unit, how it handles waste separation, and what ongoing consumables it requires. Some models use a rotating drum to break down solids, while others use a wrapping or bagging system. Power draw is another consideration, as most composting toilets need a 12V connection for the fan or agitator. If you are comparing composting toilets to cassette systems, you might also want to browse our caravan toilets collection for the full range, or check the composting toilet accessories for spare parts and consumables.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do composting toilets smell?
When installed and maintained correctly, composting toilets produce very little odour. Most models use a small 12V fan to vent air outside the vehicle. Proper separation of liquid and solid waste is the key to odour control.
How often do you need to empty a composting toilet?
It varies by model and usage. Most composting toilets need the solids container emptied every few weeks for a couple. Liquid containers are smaller and may need emptying every two to four days depending on capacity.
Can a composting toilet replace a cassette toilet?
In many cases, yes. Several composting toilets are designed as drop-in replacements for standard cassette toilets. You may need a retrofit kit or minor modifications depending on your caravan's layout. Check the specifications for your model against your existing toilet footprint. Our bathroom accessories collection has additional fittings that may help.
