21.4 If the sewer doesn't work: bag in the bowl

It is the fastest solution if the toilet is intact and you don't have a bucket ready. The North Carolina Department of Health describes it this way:

1. Close the toilet's shutoff valve (behind it, near the floor) and flush once to empty the tank, so the bowl doesn't refill.
2. Remove the water from the bowl with a cup and gloves, if you can, so the bag doesn't get wet on the outside.
3. Lift the seat, put one heavy trash bag inside another and cover the bowl with both. Lower the seat to hold them in place.
4. Use it the same way as the bucket toilet: absorbent material after each use, seal and change the inner bag when it is half full (section 21.5).
