We're new to motorhoming and can't figure out how to responsibly empty our grey waste tank. Our motorhome has a vertical dump pipe just forward of the rear axle and about 18 inches inboard of the offside. This has a rod-operated 'slide' dump valve at the end of the pipe. The end of the pipe is only four to six inches off the ground (depending on how the ground lies) and so none of the portable waste containers I've seen fit under it. I guess that this arrangement is designed to be used by positioning the waste pipe over a drainage grating (e.g. at a motorhome service point) and pulling the rod handle to open the valve and dump the grey tank contents into the grating.
About the only thing I can think of is to use a shallow washing-up bowl and empty the grey tank 5 litres at a time -- but that would take ages and be rather messy. Has anyone got a elegant solution for this? Thanks for looking, Geoff
