The Best Portable Composting Toilet for Life on the Move
The OGO Nomad portable composting toilet is built for wherever the road takes you — no plumbing, no power, no installation required. Just set it down and go. Our patented urine diverter separates liquid and solid waste at the source, eliminating odor without chemicals, water, or any of the mess that comes with traditional portable toilets.
What's Included
- OGO Nomad Portable Composting Toilet
- Sanitary Spray Bottle
- Urine Bottle with Cap
- 2x Disposable Bags
- 1 Bag of Coco Coir Medium
Grab-and-Go Ready
At just 9 lbs and 12.38" x 15.4" x 13.0", the Nomad is compact enough to stow under a van seat, in a truck bed, or in a tent vestibule. There's no setup process, no venting required, and no tools needed. Pull it out, use it, and move on — that's the whole idea.
Zero Contact Emptying
The Nomad's bag-based solids system means you never have to touch or handle the waste directly. After every use, add a layer of coco coir. Replace the bag every 8–10 uses and you're done. The urine bottle lifts straight out for quick, clean disposal. No bins, no compost handling, no unpleasant surprises.
Cost-Effective by Design
No motor. No electronics. No installation. The Nomad's no-power design keeps the unit simple, reliable, and affordable — without sacrificing the odor control and waste separation that make OGO composting toilets worth owning. It's the smartest entry point into off-grid sanitation.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often do I need to empty the OGO Nomad? The disposable bag in the solids compartment lasts approximately 8–10 uses before it needs to be replaced. The urine bottle capacity varies by user but typically needs emptying every 1–2 days for regular use. Adding a layer of coco coir after every solids use extends time between bag changes and keeps odor in check.
Does the OGO Nomad smell?
No — when used correctly, the Nomad is odor-free. The patented urine diverter separates liquid and solid waste at the source, which is what causes odor. As long as liquids and solids are properly separated and coco coir is added after each use, there is no unpleasant smell.
Does the OGO Nomad require electricity or plumbing?
Neither. The Nomad runs entirely without power or plumbing, making it ideal for camping, festivals, off-grid cabins, and any situation where infrastructure isn't available. It's the simplest composting toilet in the OGO lineup.
What's the difference between the OGO Nomad and the OGO Origin?
The Nomad is a portable, no-power unit designed for temporary or on-the-go use. The Origin is a permanent-install composting toilet with electric agitation, a liquid sensor, and a larger urine bottle capacity — better suited for full-time RV living, tiny homes, or boats. If you need something grab-and-go, the Nomad. If you're setting up a dedicated bathroom space, the Origin.
What medium should I use in the Nomad?
OGO recommends coco coir — it's lightweight, effective, and available directly from OGO. Add a thin layer after each solids use. Sphagnum peat moss is also compatible if coco coir isn't available.
Can the OGO Nomad be used for everyday use, not just camping?
Absolutely. Many Nomad owners use it as a primary toilet in van builds, off-grid cabins, and even urban van life situations where public restrooms aren't always accessible. Its simple maintenance routine makes it practical for daily use, not just occasional adventures.
