    I know this is a weird question, but I am female, so that should hopefully explain it...

    I was reading an article that Schneider forbids those type of things on their trucks, so I was just wondering if anyone could tell me if that is still their policy?

    I would really appreciate any info, thank you!

    I know females are different, but the same thing that comes out of me comes out of you. With that in mind, a good follow-up question would be "why in the heck would you want to keep a toilet on he trucking the first place?"

    Men can go quickly behind a trailer near the grass at 3am. Kinda hard for a woman to do that.

    Not to mention the safety issue.

    I would do what Pattyj suggests and clean up before hitting their terminal.
     
    pattyj Thanks this.

    Actually its not hard going at 3 am if you find a quiet exit ramp.You guys are lucky,you can go whenever and noone thinks twice.But heaven forbid if a female goes and ppl see that,why thats an accident waiting to happen on their part,lol.I try not to get to that point and wait till I hit the rest area.

    I know we all do it, myself included. But I've always operated under the rule that we can do it, we just can't talk about. I can hide (and empty in a way that doesn't infringe on the sanitary expectations of my fellow drivers btw) my pee bottles, but an actual toilet brings it to another level. Doesn't matter if its male or female.

    That being said, get yourself that coffee can and a funnel with a flexible hose. The picture in my mind tells me that works better. LOL

    A coffee can has to work better then a plastic jug and trying to keep that funnel from moving all over the place,lol.
