10/4 on the bucket. I would carry all my gear in a new lowes bucket $3 ie tools,glad hand grommets,fuses,tools,gps,radio,logbook. And in event of an emergency empty it use it and throw it,64oz gatorade bottles are good to pee in also,just make sure you get the lid backon tight!

I use one of there pee bags every night that I sleep in the truck.
I carry the bucket, seat and number two bags for emergencies but I do prefer a real toilet.
The bags contain a chemical that neutralizes the odor and gels the liquid the bags are thick and seal up like a zip lock.
The nice thing is I do not have to clean or dump a porta pottie! -
Years ago I worked in the shop for a fair size flatbed outfit. After the first time of opening a door on a 100 degree day after truck sits unattended for a while, potty undumped or not taken care of proper indescribable. I know there are emergencies, I have heard all the situations. The cab of a truck is too small for that business. Throw away bags whatever, You have to go throw them away any way so save a bag and do your business.

Well, this just came down from on high: any and all drivers will henceforth be equipped with catheters, colostomy bags, feeding tubes and IVs, to prevent any unwarranted and unnecessary stops. Also, each IV will feed stimulants and psychotropics on demand from the central office, to ensure all drivers will drive nonstop. Plus, all complaining will be handled by electrodes in the seat.
In other words, we'll look like this dude:

Listen....Try 6 lanes wide major traffic back up with no trees beside the road in the city for 4hrs.... Some guys think they are awsome because they have never had to dookie while on the road....wow...what makes them such a tight #####? Did they need to respond to this post? They probably don't pass gas either. Lol
There is a solution for the ones that were asking.
There is an awsome porta-potti shown on "money-saving-tips-for-truckers.com"... it is very well designed and self contained ...easy to empty the closed resevoir pack (Use the blue water)... empty descretly at RV dumps at rest stops or truck stops. Make sure you get one short enough to fit under the bunk (Out of the way)... it makes a good way to dispose of dirty dish water and water for brushing your teeth also...jungledrums Thanks this. -
Yeah, ask the truckers that were stuck on I35 South this weekend north of Denton, bet they needed porta-potties!!
Great link, I've been poring thru that for the last six hours... It just keeps going and going. When I first hit the site, I thought I was getting spammed by a crap placeholder fake site; but it's the real deal. Well done and very informative. Definitely a must-read for all wannabes.
