Are you an adventurer, a passionate camper, an overlander, or a weekend tripper? Look no further because Trelino® Evo M is here to revolutionize your camping experience.

As outdoor enthusiasts ourselves, we understand the importance of quality, sustainability, and convenience. That's why we've designed Trelino® Evo M with precision in Germany, to create the best portable composting toilet on the market. At 9.5 lb the Trelino® Evo M is easy to transport.

Areas of Application: With compact dimensions and good capacity, the Trelino® Evo M is the perfect sanitary companion in the van, trailer or boat.

Attention! Use your Trelino EVO only as a toilet - not as a seat!

To prevent damage to the soft close mechanism, please allow the lid to close gently on its own, without manually pressing it down.

How does a composting toilet work?

A separating compost toilet has three main pieces: separating insert, urine canister, and a solids container. All of these work together to make sure your camping toilet is dry and smell free! The separating insert funnels the urine into the canister, while the solids are kept separate in their own container lined with a bag and a drying litter material. To learn more, you can check out our page:  "How Does a Composting Toilet Work?". 

What should I pay attention to when using it?

The correct sitting position is crucial for the best possible function of a composting toilet. For anatomical reasons, this differs for women and men. Women may need to sit up straighter or closer to the front. For more tips on this, you can read our article here. 

Why does a composting toilet not smell?

Odors are caused by the mixing of solids and liquids. Separating the excreta and then drying the solids prevents undesirable aromas. 

 

Do I have to change/empty the plastic bag after each use?

Nope! Trelinos are urine diverting toilets which keep everything as dry and smell free as possible. As long as you are using a good litter material to cover your solids, they should be dried out and have no smell which means you don’t have to empty the bags after each go! Depending on the size of your Trelino®, the bags hold between 3 and 12 number 2’s.

 

Which litter / cover material should I use to dry the solids?

There are a variety of different sprinkles you can use in your solids container.
We recommend small animal litter or coconut coir. While these are our top suggestions, there are still numerous alternatives that our customers use. For more detail on these options, you can read our page "Consider Your Litter".

Do I need a fan?

A fan counteracts condensation, accelerates the drying process of the solids and ensures that fragrances quickly dissolve into thin air. This makes it particularly suitable for long emptying cycles or if your Trelino® is used by several people. Due to its compact dimensions and short emptying cycles, the small Trelino® options do not need a fan.

What happens when I have diarrhea?

Diarrhea is not a problem when using a composting toilet. Actually, having one so close should help you in those emergencies. You only need to sprinkle on more litter after the fact to help absorb any extra liquid.

Where do I dispose of the contents?

The urine canister and solids container can be emptied independently of each other. The urine can easily be disposed of in a toilet connected to the sewer system. Just pour and flush.  Diluted, it is also suitable as fertilizer for your home garden. The bag with the solids can be disposed of similarly to a diaper or dog poo bag. We recommend checking local regulations for disposal guidelines. Conditionally, composting is also possible. 

Which bags should I use to line the solids container?

You can start by using the 10 bags that we include in your Trelino® order. These are thicker bags made from recycled materials that will make sure your waste stays in the bag and doesn’t leak through. You can also use bags made from compostable material if you are looking to compost your waste. 

How do I clean a composting toilet?

Cleaning a composting toilet is as simple as its use. You can use diluted vinegar, citric acid, or even microorganisms to clean your Trelino®. There are just 3 easy cleans that your toilet would need. 1) Spray and wipe down the toilet “bowl” and seat as needed 2) Every 2-3 days empty then rinse out the urine canister with your cleaning solution. 3) When full, just lift up the bag in the solids container. 

What makes Trelino® so special?

The value in our product comes from our high standards of production and a conscience towards our partners, suppliers and employees.We want to do justice to everyone in our supply chain and our company by producing the toilets in Germany, under fair conditions.

    Works well/overpriced

    Way overpriced for what you get. Build quality is average. Functionally it suits my needs and is as advertised.
    Costs way more than it is. The profit margin must be huge! Would not buy again. Too expensive!

    Great option for sprinter use…

    I have owned a sprinter adventure van for two years and it’s been a game changer. I have covered 10 western states and put 20k miles on it. The only thing that was missing was a toilet solution. I purposefully did not opt for a framed (permanent) bath to save on actual living space. This Trelino was exactly what I was looking for. Works as advertised, easy to store…works great with Coco Coir. Full transparency…I have used other “chem” toilets, plain old buckets…and i try to use public or state park/forestry restrooms as much as possible but sometimes that is not an option; that is when the Trelino pays for itself. Take the hit and pay the price up front and then you’re good to go!

    Amazingly light and easy to clean/use

    I had a C-Head previously and could not “aim” into the urine diverter very well. Trelino makes it super easy and even my 8 year old can do it! Cleaning the toilet is absolutely a cinch and even the weakest of persons can lift it! Love everything about this unit and so happy we purchased it.

    Just right for our Sprinter van

    We really like our Evo-M. On our 2020 MB Sprinter 144” wheelbase passenger van, Evo-M fits between the rear of the driver’s seat and the 1st row passenger bench seat. To use our Evo-M, we pull the driver’s seat forward. Evo-M is easy to use, and performs exactly as described. This is the first liquid-separating toilet we’ve found that works as we hoped and that is a match for our Sprinter. The Evo-M's construction quality is excellent. We anticipate many years of use.

    Best Bang for your Buck

    We were so impressed with the Trelino Evo M that we got for our camper van - these toilets are so affordable compared to other options on the market and they work wonderfully. No odors & easy to clean. The only thing I can say is I wish the urine storage was greater on this Evo M - it’s almost the same as the Evo S

    So convenient!

    So much easier to maintain and clean than my previously installed flush toilet, with black tank, and nasty dumping hose! My Trelino toilet is attractive, portable, easy to use, and absolutely no odors! I love it, and it was one of the best decisions I made for my camper van!

    Great purchase

    We tested the unit out for a long weekend and it worked great. Easy setup and no smell. It also fits nicely into a bin (we camp from a pickup truck, not a van). The only room for improvement is emptying the urine container. It would be easier with a side valve as it is hard to completely empty it from the top. I would recommend this to anyone interested in a compost toilet.

    The No-Nonsense Straight Poop on Composting Toilets

    Got it—here’s a tight, no-fluff version:

    The **Trelino Evo** is the first budget composting toilet that actually makes sense in an RV/van/off-grid cabin. Two chambers keep things simple: liquids to a sealed, opaque bottle; solids to a lined bucket. After each use, add a small scoop of dry material (fluffy coir works best). Setup takes minutes, cleaning is a quick vinegar-water spritz, and the smooth surfaces don’t hold odor.

    **Why it works:** don’t mix, keep it dry. Separation prevents urine funk; the cover layer keeps solids aerobic. The gasketed bottle is discreet and smell-tight.

    **Pros:** fast setup, low odor, easy cleaning, budget-friendly.
    **Cons:** you must empty liquids routinely and keep cover handy.

    **Bottom line:** Set the habit, and it disappears into the background. I recommend the **Trelino Evo**.

    Trelino Evo Medium

    This is my second Trelino toilet that I am using in my new van build. Obviously I loved my first toilet because of its simplicity, low environmental impact and functionality.

    This time Trelino charged me for my entire order to be shipped to my van builder but did not ship my entire order. I am dissatisfied with customer service as there is no US telephone customer service. While Trelino eventually resolved their shipping error, the resolution was cumbersome and prolonged due their lack of any direct customer service presence in US. The only communication option is via generic email made even more untimely by the large time zone difference. I would not order directly from them again unless they offered direct customer service in US.

    Thomas Z. (United States)
    A great night relief

    Our Trelino has been great on our western US camping trip with our teardrop trailer. Easy to use and clean and the coir we use eliminates smell. Nice to not have to walk 100 yards to an outhouse.

    I wish I had gotten the one with the wooden lid

    It’s working good. It’s just a little too tall for the space I want in. I really wish I would’ve gotten the one with a wooden lid because I feel like the walls would be thicker. These ones are so thin that they might break quicker overtime. Especially with hyperactive children. I wish there was a window into the toilet so you can see how much urine is in there. I do like the soft close function of the lid. I just wish they had that in the wooden one. It works great.. I just don’t see it lasting very long and feel like it needs thicker walls. The price is still a too high in my opinion for what you get. But I wish they would combine both functionalities of the ones with the wooden lids as this one into one and make that window so we can see how much urine is filled up. Otherwise thank you so much for making this product.

    Hello Laura,

    Thank you for the detailed feedback on you and your family's experience with the Trelino so far!

    We will be introducing a level indicator into the shop which would not require electricity and can be added into the toilet retroactively.

    Thank you for the feedback on the structure of the toilet as well.

    Best,
    Your Trelino team

    New Camping Level Unlocked!

    I’m not a “dig a hole” kind of camper and I got used to camping places that had bathrooms and cutting myself off from drinking by 8pm so I didn’t have to wander out in the dark. I had looked at other camping toilets and just wasn’t into it. But then a friend of mine for a Trelino and raved about it. We were going to a dispersed campground so I figured I’d give in and try it. It. Was. Amazing. I even kept it in my little square drop trailer the whole time instead of in my privacy tent. It was so convenient to have, I could use it anytime, and it didn’t smell at all. We camped for 5 days. I feel like I have the freedom to camp anywhere now that I don’t have to rely on bathrooms! Look, I know, it’s an expensive plastic box. But it’s amazing for me and has opened up a new world of camping options that I’m excited to explore!

    Major upgrade from my cassette camping toilet

    We have a campervan and the Trelino is so easy to empty compared to our previous toilet, where we had to find a public toilet to dump. We got the mid size, which will last an entire weekend, but it is so easy to dump, we just pull the bag each time we gas up and dump in in the trash. I do recommend dumping the urine tank daily or every other day, because it can fill up quick and no warning when it is full. MOST IMPORTANT: I was surprised there was no smell. Obviously, you get some smell when using it and dropping covering material over everything, but after that, nothing. We love this thing.

    Urine canister without lid, no response from Trelio.

    My urine canister came without a lid. I emailed Trelino about it, and did not even receive a response. Fausto, order no. TNA10561.

    Hello, thank you for your feedback. We sincerely regret that you had a negative experience and that you felt you didn’t receive a response from us. We always strive to reply to customer inquiries within 24 hours and truly appreciate your patience. If you have an EVO M model, the closed lid is typically placed in a designated compartment underneath the urine canister for transport. If it’s missing, we will, of course, send you the correct part immediately. Please don’t hesitate to contact our customer service at hello@mytrelino.com. We will be happy to find a quick solution for you and send the missing part as soon as possible. Best wishes, your Trelino Team

    On the plus side, Trelino's design is lovely and discrete, compact and comfortable to use. It is the best solution I've found (and truly there aren't that many solutions). The poop basket with litter or wood chips works wonderfully well but the urine chamber retains odours even with daily disposal and with the recommended vinegar/water treatment (I keep experimenting on ratios). Also, for the very expensive bit of kit that it is, the thin underside surrounds of the top piece which one must handle when removing the top could be a bit thicker and more rounded for comfort and safety.
