Mobile Toilet with Toilet Bowl for Rural Use

Admin October 16, 2026

The types of mobile toilets with toilet bowls available for rural use mainly include simple toilet seats, portable movable toilet seat rings, products related to converting squat toilets to sit-down toilets, and through-type ceramic toilet bowls.

Simple toilet seats: These are made by transforming idle buckets at home. Choose a bucket with an appropriate diameter of the bucket opening and pair it with accessories that have fixed slots at the back. Just place the accessories on the bucket, and it instantly becomes a mobile toilet seat. This solution has extremely low costs, generating almost no additional expenses, and is relatively comfortable to sit on. However, its hygiene conditions are relatively poor, requiring regular cleaning of the excrement in the bucket, and its overall stability may not be as good as that of professional products.

Portable movable toilet seat rings: These come with a lid design, performing well in terms of hygiene. They can effectively reduce the emission of odors and the growth of bacteria, making them suitable for use in rural homes. On cold winter nights, they are also more convenient to use, eliminating the worry of direct contact with the cold squat toilet. However, these products may require additional containers to collect excrement, and some products may have issues such as inappropriate sizes and insecure installations.

Products related to converting squat toilets to sit-down toilets:

  • Squat-to-sit toilet stools: Essentially, they are U-shaped stools with a gap. They are directly placed on top of the squat toilet, and people sit on them to use the toilet, with the excrement falling into the original squat pit. Taking the HOUYA model as an example, the stool surface is 350mm long, 250mm wide, and 232mm high, with features such as anti-slip and being less likely to cause leg numbness. Its advantages are low price, no need for construction, and being ready to use upon placement. The disadvantages are the lack of a flushing function, requiring self-flushing with water, a fixed sitting height, the gap between the stool surface and the squat toilet being prone to dirt accumulation, and the odor control effect depending on the trap of the original squat toilet. It is suitable for temporary transitions, extremely low budgets, or situations where it is inconvenient to replace the toilet when renting a house.
  • Foldable toilet chairs: Their structure is closer to that of chairs, usually with backrests or more complete seat supports. For example, the Yagao brand has black foldable simple toilet chairs that use thickened and reinforced X-shaped cross metal brackets, etc. They are more comfortable and stable to use and can be folded for easy storage and movement.

Through-type ceramic toilet bowls: These can be used for the renovation of rural dry toilets. There are products such as movable toilet bowls for pregnant women and the elderly, which are through-type ceramic toilet bowls specifically designed for rural dry toilet renovation. They can provide a better user experience and hygiene conditions, but their installation is relatively complex, and the costs are also higher.
