Willow feeder vs composting toilet

Hello,

My family and I have used a trash bin and sawdust toilet for probably twenty years now. We use the normal-sized, large bins, maybe 100 litres or maybe less.  They do not last forever, as the bottom eventually cracks, after which they get switched to other uses. I try to keep four bins for the loo, which gives us one month before a bin must be emptied, as we fill a bin every week.

If we didn't empty the bins after a month, but only emptied them after two years, we'd literally need to have 104 bins in rotation!  Does my family and I just poop excessively? Weeing is done outside for the most part. I have a friend with a dry toilet outside of her house that has always just put a lid on it and let it sit, but hers is hardly ever used, as she and her family use the flush water loo in the house. 104 bins at our place would be a lot of bins and they would take up a lot of space! How many bins do you have at Weaton labs? Where do you store all of the closed up ones? I always thought that there were quite a bit of visitors there, and, if my presumption is correct, it would mean that the bins get filled quickly. Unless there are other places where people go?

Cordially

Do you have any Poop Beasts so that the cans can be emptied sooner?

As the years pass, we find we want to empty the cans quickly and move on. Most plant species cannot handle this much nutrient at once.  But there are a few that can.  We call them the "poop beasts".  Willow, cottonwood, poplar and bamboo. They will greedily gobble up as much as we can give them and then lick their plate clean.

We empty them after a month into the current compost pile, where they compost for five years, after the compost pile's closure. I know that we read the piles should be set up under a certain tree, (don't remember which), but that has not always been a possibility. We have actually moved the compost piles, along with ourselves, when we have moved through the years.

I was asking though because I understood, after reading on the willow feeders, that the bins are shut up for two years, so that the heat is everywhere, as opposed to just in the centre of the pile, once it's emptied.

Tiffany said, we read the piles should be set up under a certain tree, (don't remember which)

Poop Beast from the quote above:

Willow, cottonwood, poplar and bamboo.

I don't think that would be the translation.

Okay, I looked it up and it's hawthorn.

But we do have willow at the end of our gray water plant filtration system..

And it doesn't seem like French people talk about doing that anymore. Perhaps it disappeared because that would be a limitation for some people switching to a dry toilet?
