Proper Waste Disposal
Dumping raw sewage from toilet holding
tanks, except at authorized dumping stations,
is universally prohibited. Most National, State
and private parks have either a central dump
facility or campsite hook-up for sewage. Many
modern rest areas along the interstate now have
dump stations available. Woodall’s Campground
Directory, Trailer Life’s RV Campgrounds
and Services Directory, Rand McNally’s
Campground and Trailer Park Guide, Good
Sam Park Director (Good Sam Club) and other
similar publications list dumping stations. Some
major oil companies also offer dump facilities at
select stations.
What Not to Put in Waste Holding Tanks
DO NOT use strong or full strength
detergents to deodorize and disinfect.
Use odor control chemicals made
especially for holding tanks.
Automotive antifreeze, ammonia, alcohol
or acetone in holding tanks will dissolve
plastic.
DO NOT dispose of table scraps or
cooking grease into the tanks. They can
clog pipes or damage termination valve
seals.
