Using portable toilet at home

Options
My house has only 1 toilet. At present, few of my guests are staying with me (only temporarily for 3 months). This is causing some trouble with only 1 loo. :o

I am thinking of getting one for the outhouse.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Palm-Springs-Portable-Camping-Outdoors/dp/B0013B6XX8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1327317793&sr=8-1

But where can I dispose the content? Is it possible to flush on domestic toilet?

I understand they are usually meant to be used in campsites but I have no campsites nearby and unless I can dispose it nearby I need to drop the idea.

    lift the manhole cover and chuck it down there.
    a hosepipe will help a lot.
    Get some gorm.

    Yes - dispose of it directly into the foul sewer.

    I was just asking whether it is safe to flush the content in normal loo as I guess it will be just liquid.

    If I could not find the manhole I would pour it down the toilet.

    Same place it will finish up.
    I used to be indecisive but now I am not sure.

    true enough, but you dont wanna invite any other problems such as a blockage in the soil pipe.
    direct into the manhole solves that issue.

    I have a camping toilet like that. As long as you use the proper chemicals and proper toiletpaper (don't use normal toilet paper) - most of the contents break up. Easily flushable down a toilet. If you use the chemicals then don't empty in the woods of anything as bad for environment.
