Since there's essentially no smell from the solids, you can bag them up,
take them ashore, and toss them into the nearest dumpster. In fact, as
Larry Stearns of NH mentioned to me, some of his clients remove a part
of the compost and add some peat each week; that way, they don't ever
have to dump the entire unit.

The liquids tank - and this is a really great feature of the NH - can be
capped until you're ready to dispose of it. It can then be dumped into
the nearest head.
