My buddy just dropped off a urinal they demoed at work and I am going to plumb it in the garage so I don't have to walk all the way into the house.  Any laws against a small gravel sump outside?

Its a lot easier to ask forgiveness, than to apply for a permit!.... Run it into a field line for a septic tank, and discretely across onto your neighbors property!

I have a "gravel sump" outside of my garage side door - I just don't have the urinal.

Of course, I live in the sticks...

Well actually, when we built the house we put a door from the downstairs bath into the garage. It also makes a nice pass-through from the downstairs rooms in the back.

It's just more fun to step outside.

I have a sink in mine.  Really useful.  You can wash your hands & get right back to work.  A Urinal would be useful also especially for the beer drinking drunk girls!

Urinal?  We don't need no stinking urinals (really!).  That's why God created trees in the woods.

Correct. Real rednecks just piss in the corner of the garage.

I just open the side door to the garage and piss on the wife's roses.  No big deal.

Man, I was just looking for some intelligent conversation with regard to pissers.  Now dudes are talking about wizzing on the old laid-ees roses.  I normally use a bucket then throw it onto her roses.

I did that one time in a previous house.  Dug a pit, put in the gravel.  Worked fine.  After about a year, the smell in the yard was terrible.  If you have a crawl space floor, consider installing on an inside garage wall and plumb into the sewer.  Now, I have a deep sink with hot and cold water draining into the sewer.  The girls have a hard time balancing on the edge, but no problem for me.

What ever you do be sure that you have plenty of ventilation.  Piss and piss oder/vapors are highly corrosive.  Any one who has served on a Navy ship will confirm.  And don't have close enough to the bike or tools with out splash guards!!

I'd put it in a little closet.  (water closet)

Yea.  I was going to enclose it and put a light fan and a bucket of water for rinse out.  Stink is no good.

never heard of anyone with a urinal in their garage.....guess you'll be the first. Take a picture and send it to Blue Collar Comedy Tour and Jeff Foxworthy will have you on for "yard of the month"

Had a friend that worked on a race car in the garage.  He drilled a hole in the wall and installed a funnel.  Worked like a urinal.

Nothing wrong with a quart Mason jar.  When I go to sell the house, I'm going to list it as a
2 and 1/16 bath.

Even though it doesn't seem so, I've found that you never piss more than the amount of beer you drink.  So, I just keep the empties close by.  Even less effort than walking over to the corner or hanging it out the window.  I also found that you can be real quiet about it late at night by sticking your big toe in the bottle and pissing down your leg.

Be sure to seal the concrete under the pissoir.

Simplest install is to dig a hole about 50% deeper than a 2 gallon bucket (5 gal if you have friends or a large capacity bladder) directly behind the urinal. Put a 2" layer of lye at the bottom of the hole. Add a few inches of gravel. Punch holes in the bottom of the bucket, place in hole. Run the exit pipe to the center of the bucket and add a 90 degree bend. Cover with gravel. Decorate the surface edges with mint plants. Do not serve mint juleps to company.

I'll post a pic of the anti-freeze bottle install tomorrow.

Years ago when I did a lot of DX'ing on 20 Meters at my buddies garage , he has a flexible funnel running through the concrete wall to the outside. Just take out the plug do your business and put the plug back. Got a little rank in the summer but it did surve it purpose. Hell of a lot cheaper that a urinal.

Mines a funnel with a tube throught the wall.  Comes out under the rain spout so it gets flushed every time it rains.
