The Portopotty Survival Guide Every Festivalgoer Needs
Dealing with portopotties at festivals is something that can be a real struggle for some people. Let’s be honest, they’re not the most glamorous part of the experience. But with a little preparation, you can handle it like a pro. Follow these tips, and you'll be good to go!
Don’t Look Down
One of the first rules of surviving a festival porta-potty is simple: don’t look down. Just go in, do your business, and get out. Avoid the temptation to inspect the, uh, "decor." The less you focus on the less-than-ideal situation, the better.
Bring a Light
Porta-potties can get dark, especially if you're using them at night. A small, portable light can make a huge difference. Whether it’s a headlamp or a pocket-sized LED, it’ll help you see what you need to without fumbling around in the dark.
Pocket Bidet
For those who like to feel extra clean after using the bathroom, a portable pocket bidet is a game-changer. It’s small, easy to carry, and will give you that fresh feeling without needing to rely on questionable toilet paper.
Sheewee for the Ladies
Ladies, you don't have to squat uncomfortably in those festival portopotties! The Sheewee is a great solution for women who want to pee standing up without making a mess. It’s discreet, portable, and can be a lifesaver in long lines or less-than-ideal bathroom situations.
If you want to avoid the long walk to a porto pottie, consider setting up a bathroom inside your tent. Here’s how handle your business without leaving your cozy setup:
Pee Jug
A pee jug is a simple, convenient solution. It’s easy to use, and you just need to make sure you have a lid to avoid any spills. Once it fills up, you can dispose of it properly later on, so you don’t have to trek to the nearest bathroom.
Tent Urinal
A portable tent urinal is designed to be used inside your tent. It’s discreet, leak-proof, and allows you to take care of business without leaving your camp. After use, make sure to dispose of the contents properly when you get the chance.
Disposable Urinal Bags
Disposable urinal bags are a great option if you want to keep things eco-friendly. They’re compact and easy to use, and you can seal them up for later disposal. When you’re ready, just dispose of the contents properly, and you’ll be good to go.
By using these strategies, you can avoid the hassle of portopotties and keep your festival experience comfortable and stress-free. Just remember to always dispose of your waste properly once you're able to, and you’ll be all set to enjoy the rest of your festival!
