FAQ's

We hand-craft our portable composting toilets and showers using as many recycled and reclaimed materials as possible at our rural property in North Canterbury, New Zealand.

These units can be safely moved around onsite by two or more people, or transported to a new location on a standard trailer - so even if you move to a new piece of paradise, these units can go with you!

As long as we've been involved in the installation process, we're happy to offer a two year warranty on any parts we've provided. Unfortunately we do still have to charge for travel and labour to replace these as we've got some very remote installation sites around New Zealand!

As with all building projects in New Zealand, it's generally up to the land-owner to obtain consent. Rules differ from council to council so we recommend checking in with your local authority. Because these units are designed for portability these aren't intended to be a permanent residential solution, but we're happy to discuss your needs and work out a solution that's right for you.

We haven't had one go yet, despite setting up in a few very windy spots! The wooden base is heavy at the bottom which prevents it being blown over, but we can also add extra stability by putting pins in the ground and strapping it down.

We request a minimum three week turnaround as we make our units to order. In practice we will often take bookings for build slots during a given month so you can get a clear idea of when your unit will be ready. Delivery arrangements are in addition to this - we often try to bundle orders together for delivery in similar areas as this lets us pass the savings on to you!
