Dump points and your loo.
« on: November 18, 2021, 12:59:28 PM »
Hi,
    I'm trying to get a base line on how campers do the last clean out on a trip.
1.  Do you use a dump point close to home?
2.  Do you pour it down the house toilet?
3.  Do you have a home dump point?
   3a.  Is this connected to the sewer/septic?
   3b.  Is this similar to a long drop?
Cheers

Dump point close to home (2klm) for us. (when we had the van/camper trailer.)

I'd chuck the cassette  in the work van and quick run, dump and run.

You should never walk out of the public toilets sniffing your fingers.

We use the last dumppoint before heading for home, then when I get home give the toilet a good rinse out and leave everything open to dry out for a couple of days, pack it up and back into the camper for the next trip.

We usually dump it when leaving the park on the last morning. If we can't for some reason, then down the sewer surface drain after we're home.
