I perform this function too and am amazed at the extra "stuff" that I see come out. I do this at least three times when packing up while DW takes care of packing the inside.
We just completed a long trip and I learned that I have to empty the Black about every two days (Guess we are using lots of water).
We are going on a 4 day trip and the Campground has a rule. Dumping Grey is ok on site, but Black must be done at their dump station.
When I asked what people do with long term stays, their reply was people either move their rig to empty the tank at the station or use a portable dump cart.
I don't want to buy the dump cart and I really don't want to pack up the rig just to empty the tank.
Any strategies we could use to get through the 4 days without having to dump in the middle of the trip yet still use the proper amount of water to get the job done?
Thanks!
