Portable Toilet for Anglers – Clean, Compact & Chemical-Free
Long sessions on the bank are much easier when you don’t have to leave your swim just to find a toilet.
Popaloo is a compact portable toilet for fishing, designed for anglers spending long days, overnighters and weekend sessions beside lakes, rivers and fisheries where permanent facilities may be limited or some distance away.
It folds flat alongside your fishing gear, sets up in seconds and requires no water or traditional liquid toilet chemicals.
A Fishing Toilet Made for Long Sessions on the Bank
When you’re settled into a swim for the day — or fishing through the night — packing up or walking away from your peg simply to find a toilet can be inconvenient.
Popaloo gives you another option.
Keep it packed away with your equipment until you need it, then assemble it quickly to create a familiar-height portable toilet close to your fishing setup.
For additional privacy, Popaloo can also be paired with a dedicated privacy tent.
Why Anglers Choose Popaloo
Compact Enough to Pack
When folded, Popaloo measures approximately 420mm × 420mm × 90mm, allowing it to be stored flat in a vehicle or carried with your camping equipment.
Lightweight & Portable
At approximately 4.28kg, Popaloo is considerably easier to transport than a traditional rigid holding-tank toilet.
No Water Required
There is no water tank to fill before use, making Popaloo particularly useful on temporary campsites and festival fields.
No Liquid Toilet Chemicals
Popaloo uses a dry powder waste-gelling bag system rather than traditional liquid toilet chemicals.
Comfortable & Strong
Once assembled, Popaloo reaches approximately normal UK toilet-seat height and has been weight-tested to 175kg / approximately 27 stone.
Quick to Set Up
The toilet can be assembled in under 20 seconds when you need it.
Ideal for Carp Fishing, Overnighters & Weekend Sessions
Popaloo can be particularly useful for anglers who spend extended periods at the water.
Carp Fishing
Long carp sessions can mean remaining in the same swim for many hours or even several days. Having your own fishing toilet nearby means you don't necessarily need to leave your setup to search for facilities.
Overnight Fishing
For night sessions, Popaloo can provide the reassurance of having a toilet close to your bivvy rather than walking around an unfamiliar fishery in the dark.
Match Fishing
When you're focused on your peg during a competition, having your own portable toilet available nearby can be much more convenient than relying on distant facilities.
Remote Lakes & Riverbanks
Some fisheries, syndicate waters and remote fishing locations have limited facilities. Popaloo requires no plumbing, mains water or permanent installation.
Weekend Fishing Trips
Its compact packed size makes Popaloo easy to include with the equipment needed for longer trips without taking up the space of many rigid portable toilet systems.
How the Popaloo Festival Toilet Works
Using Popaloo at a festival is deliberately straightforward.
1. Assemble Your Popaloo
Remove the toilet from its carry case and assemble it in under 20 seconds.
2. Fit a Popaloo Powder Bag
Place one of the biodegradable powder bags securely inside the toilet before use.
3. Use Your Popaloo
The dry powder contained within the bag gels liquid and solid waste. Each bag can handle approximately 2.5–3 litres.
4. Seal & Dispose Responsibly
After use, seal the bag and dispose of it responsibly in accordance with the festival’s waste arrangements and local guidance.
Create Your Own Private Bankside Toilet Setup
If there are no suitable private facilities close to your swim, Popaloo can be combined with one of our pop-up privacy tents.
The Private Convenience Pack combines a Popaloo toilet with a privacy tent, creating a compact setup that can be transported alongside your fishing equipment.
The privacy tent can also be useful as a changing area or temporary storage space during longer sessions.
Always position your toilet and privacy tent responsibly without obstructing paths, neighbouring swims or access around the fishery.
A Compact Alternative to a Traditional Fishing Toilet
Some portable toilets use rigid holding tanks that require water, liquid chemicals and dedicated space for transport.
Popaloo takes a different approach.
The folding toilet provides a strong, familiar-height seat while the disposable powder bag collects and gels the waste.
There is:
- No water tank to fill
- No traditional liquid toilet chemicals
- No rigid waste tank to empty
- No plumbing or drainage connection
- No permanent installation
For anglers already carrying a substantial amount of tackle, the ability to fold the toilet down to just 90mm high is particularly useful.
