Comprehensive review of all RV and camper toilet types: cassette, portable, gravity, vacuum, macerating, dry flush, sealing, incinerating, composting and separating. Comparison of models, consumables, installation and annual costs.

Councillors in Gwynedd, Wales, have warned that a new visitor levy could lead to a surge in wild camping by camper vans near beaches and beauty spots. The levy, signed into law in September 2023, is estimated to raise between £2.4 and £12 million. Key concerns include uncontrolled parking of camper vans, the council's lack of power to remove them, and the need for transparent allocation of funds to improve tourist facilities.
