Want to flush black tank, but slide out covers door to bathroom

I'm sure this has been talked about before, but I was not able to find it via search.

I just bought a 2011 Wildwood 26TBSS. I've had it out twice, once with full hookups, once with water/electricity only. At the full hook up site, I was able to drain the black tank while hooked up to city water and flush more water thru via the toilet. Then after draining the black and gray tanks, I capped everything up, dropped some treatment in the toilet and added 2-3 gallons of water. While maybe not perfect, my black tank was rinsed some and should not be too bad.

Our last trip, all I had was partial hookups and at the end of the weekend I had to use the dump station. Of course, I'm all hooked up and my slideout is in, which covers access to the bathroom. I cannot flush the toilet and I can't even run a hose to the toilet. An as far as I can tell, there is no blank tank flush connection on the outside of the camper.

It does not help that there is no electric or water where I store the camper, so now it's sitting in storage, with no water or tank treatment in the black tank.

If you have this situation with your trailer, I could really use some tips on how to maintain a somewhat clean black tank.

Thanks in advance!

The slides work off of your battery so you should be able to extend the slide once you get it to storage, treat the black water tank, and retract the slide.

Side note: You should remove the battery when it is in storage and put it on a trickle charger. Otherwise it will lose charge, eventually damaging the battery enough that it won't hold a charge.

Thanks. Yes, at the very least, that's what I SHOULD have done, except I had no water with me. The trailer sat for 4-5 days before I got back out there and did just that.
