Curious about how to secure your CompoCloset toilet in your rig? We’ve got some ideas for you! 

Simple Options to Secure Your CompoCloset Toilet

Some of the top ways to secure your toilet from CompoCloset based on our own experience and community feedback are:

  1. Screw it down: Use the four reinforced eyelets in the base to screw Cuddy to the floor. You can remove the solids bin separately, so no mess. Add large washers to distribute the load.
  2. Use wooden chocks: Place small wooden blocks under the side handles to lock Cuddy into place without permanent installation.
  3. Bungee cords: Another option is to loop a bungee cord over the unit, using two anchor points. Simple and removable.
  4. Carry bag: There's also a dedicated travel bag for easily moving Cuddy, Cuddy Lite, or the S1 in and out of your van, RV, or boat.

The best part? All of CompoCloset’s toilet models are the same dimensions, so these methods will work with Cuddy, Cuddy Lite, and the S1 Sealing Toilet! 

The video below goes into a bit more detail on these options:

She realised the necessity (for her) of having a toilet for travel and vanlife during multiple trips in the USA and Europe

 

When Richard asked if she wanted to help bring CompoCloset to life she was all in.

 

From the beginning Erica's goal for CompoCloset was to educate people on the benefits of composting toilets and to build a community of like minded portable toilet users. She now knows way too much about other people's bowel movements.

From Orcas Island, Washington she now lives in Vienna, Austria.
