A retractable, height-adjustable urinal requiring no water that can be enclosed into a separate closed compartment for cleaning/disinfecting along with a waterless toilet that packages and disposes of solid waste, in a smaller place.

An apparatus for raising and lowering a toilet. The toilet is configured to be equipped with pedestals which are encased in separate compartments in the base of the toilet. The toilet comprises an actuator for raising and lowing the toilet, as a result of the pedestals being pressed or depressed. The toilet comprises a controller for controlling the actuator, wherein the controller sends a signal to the actuator to raise or lower the toilet based on the pedestals being pressed or depressed. The toilet comprises a controller for receiving a signal from one or more buttons pressed to indicate a predetermined selection, wherein the selection can be one or more of the activations of a seat warmer, bidet jet spray, hydro-flush, sound system or air freshener.

An apparatus for raising and lowering a toilet. The toilet is configured to be equipped with one or more pedestals attached to the base of the toilet, wherein each of the one or more pedestals include a footrest. The toilet comprises one or more compressed springs in communication with the one or more pedestals, configured to raise or lower the pedestals. The toilet comprises one or more compressed springs in communication with the one or more pedestals and the base of the toilet, configured to extend and retract the one or more pedestals. The toilet comprises a release device configured to extend the pedestals away from an encasing in communication with the base of the toilet. The toilet comprises a retracting device configured to retract the one or more pedestals into the encasing.
