How often do you have to empty the scoop tray?

I have four cats so I empty the scoop tray every morning. When we went away for a three day vacation, the tray was full but not overflowing. Unless you're somewhat OCD like me, I'd say every other day. (I have two boxes).

After assembling the unit I put in clumping litter, not exceeding the fill line. I ran the motor once after pushing power and it got about 3/4 of the way down to just where the scooper arms start to engage, the motor hung up on that and would not proceed any further, so the scoop tray never actually had anything fall into it.

Once a week. But you'll still have to clean it every other day or so because they poop in it. And they knock it over when it becomes half full because they jump on top of it.

I will tell you the exact same thing as I mentioned to the other person who asked. The way LitterMaid markets this is so you spend lots of money. You don't have to replace filters or poop catchers as often as they say. The box stays closed after the scoop dumps the poop in it. The poop bucket pulls out so you can empty it. Another suggestion is the top part of the poop bucket sometimes comes loose so put a piece of tape on the sides so it doesn't move. Let me know if this helps you.

I don't scoop at all. About every third day I dump the whole bin out and start fresh. I just make sure to not put too much in there as I don't want to waste it.

Actually the beauty of the system are the pre=packed trays which are sold with the system and as replacements. Honestly, even though the base of the tray is a laminated chip board paper, i wouldn't keep it around for use with another litter. Eventually the urine will permeate the paper tray.In this case: Use as directed is a good path to follow.

it all depends on how much poop is in there- can take some poop out and keep so don't have to change tray as often. worth a try.

we empty ours once a month. we wash 4 loads a week theres only 2 of us so you'll have to gage your loads but even at that rate weve never had it filled up. we could go 3 months but has water in it and we don't want it to start stinking.

I like to wipe down and dry the tray and rack daily. To remove mineral deposits, try filling the tray with vinegar and soak the grass part in it.

Depending on your biomass I think about once a month. I usually trade off between rinsing the sponges and replacing the carbon (PS to save money buy cartons on carbon and refillable bags). IF you miss a cleaning nothing too dramatic happens but it's good practice.

I clean it out atleast once or twice a month give or take just depends on how dusty your house is. IF you have case Dust filters.

I have not had that problem. Maybe it has something to do with the brand of litter you use. I use Fresh Step Extreme and I usually scoop at least twice a day.

I empty mine after each use. I have had no trouble with clogging or removing it from stick. I use it daily and have had for few months.

I only use the scoop enclosed. I do about 7 loads a week - I use the full scoop for heavily soiled and only a half for those things not heavily soiled but that need laundering. It lasted me about 2 months. I love this laundry detergent!!

I do not empty mine. I use it almost every day and I don't remember for sure but believe that the instructions that come with it says to not leave it unused for 7 days. I am not real sure but they do make a suggestion.

I usually use 1 half a scoop or a little more, i hardly use the whole scoop.

Every couple of months. I keep the container from over flowing so it lasts longer. If it gets covered in debris I change it sooner. The ionizer helps

To make the prefilled tray last longer, every couple days I lift up the box and pull the tray out. Then I tilt it so the poo storage is up quite a ways and (holding the lid most of the way closed) gently shake the loose crystals back into the main pan to be re-used. Otherwise there's an awful lot of extra crystals that get pushed into the storage area and wasted.
