Composting toilets, otherwise known as waterless toilets, can provide an alternate option and often accompany a greywater system. There are many different composting toilets available. However, the chosen system must be on the list of approved waterless toilet systems from the Department of Health Approved waterless toilets. 

Some things to consider when choosing a composting toilet:

• Be familiar with the system: Check the sizing. Can it be used for your size lot and number of users?
• Waste product management – What will you do with the waste product? Do you have a suitable area to dispose of it?

The installation of a composting toilet requires approval from the Shire. An Application to Construct or Install an Apparatus for the Treatment of Sewage must be submitted with the system specs and a management statement for the waste product.
