So what will this do to your yard?
Anything good for the soil or just a better way to get rid of the poo?

Better way to get ride of poop I would guess. I think I am going to have to do that just smaller. Do you think a 5 gallon bucket with a top would work?

I would think to keep the smell in it would be better to just go large. Not like it's takes up more space because it's in the ground. Just called my hubby at work and he's gonna do it next week after he power washes our fence...LMAO

We have a couple of unused wooded acres on the back of our property. Thats where all of our poop goes!!! But that is a really good idea though for someone who doesnt have the same "luxury" as us.

If you have grass around the buried garbage can it will get super green. It really just an easy way to dispose of the waste.
You really need to use a full sized garbage can. You need to get about three feet down or it will make the ground kind of soggy.

I have considered doing the same thing, I refuse to pay so much for a doggie dooley lol. My question is, isn't the bottom hole a bit large, I read that the water should take 2 hours to drain when the bin is full, and that was for a 5 gallon container, so your large container should take longer. With such a large hole, I wonder how quickly it drains, as I know the gravel and dirt slows it, but still, if it does not drain slowly enough, it will not decomp the poo.

The water pretty much always stay in there in you use the septic stuff. I don't do the multching like in the video. Mine is set up more like the pictures in the link. It takes a long time for the water to leach into the ground. So in a way its kind of like a poop soup, but I have four dogs and it gets rip of all there waste now for a year. It's usually about a quarter full and ever couple of weeks I will top the water level off to about half way to help the decompostiton.
FYI if you live in the city you should call someone to mark off you gas, power, phone lines etc... and you can rent something to help with the digging, but depending on the soil it should be easy enough a shovel
cheers
