Well, last night I tried to sign up on a site called boondockerswelcome.com
Seemed like a good way to offer my property to travelers and also to find private property where folks invite boondockers to stay. It probably still is, just thought I would pass on my experience trying to sign up. As I mentioned I use a sawdust toilet. I have no running water (carry a 2 gallon cooler), so, no grey water tank, no black water tank. I was rejected by boondockerswelcome.com because I don't have holding tanks. I explained to the woman in several different ways what a sawdust toilet is and how it is less of an environmental impact than the RV alternative, but, she rejected my application.
So, maybe a good site, maybe not. If you use it don't tell the administrator you use anything but a flush toilet (she says porta-potti is OK). And be up front with your hosts. Tell them you use an alternative toilet and how you dispose of the waste.
BTW, she assumed I was not "self-contained" by asking me about a picture of my TD in the boon docking site on my property. She said she was either going to tell me someone violated their self contained rule or I was. Is boondockerswelcom run by one of those folks we often run into at campgrounds...?
Have you tried Hipcamp?
