Grey waste disposal in Europe

[Iain55]

In the UK I take a Wastemaster with me because some sites don't have a drive-over disposal point.
Could I leave it behind for my European trip later this year (2 months travelling).

Most aires have a drive over drain. Even some supermarkets have service points at their fuel stations, with grey and black waste emptying.

Might depend on the countries that you intend to visit, but from personal experience France is extremely well equipped with services.

The french dump their waste in Paris. Least it smells like they do
So just drive through with all valves open
Though as said every aire I have stopped at has grey and black waste disposal, a lot also have free water and free parking...?. Thinking about it, I have not paid in the last 4 years
Good one France

Plenty of drive over drains, never had problems

 

[Mr and Mrs Tupcox]

There are plenty places to empty but if you deside o stay on a paid for aires or site for few days it will saves you keep moveing van .

 

[SimonM]

Never had a problem over there.

We take the wastemaster with us to avoid moving the van when parked up in a campsite for an extended period. Every European site we have ever stopped on has had motorhome service points.

As for the UK agree there are sites without grey water motorhome service points but they seem to always have a drain somewhere that you can temporarily park over while emptying into it. The only real issue might be on those that are just a field with a water tap and a portaloo. Usually £5 a night jobs. They normally have a ditch around the perimeter you can empty into.

We carry a folding bucket to carry grey waste for when we are parked up for a while

An awful lot of basic UK sites on grass pitches say just let it out on the grass.

We bought a cheap black tank as an "emergency reserve cassette" never used it for poo !
But as has been posted handy for grey water as it saves moving the MoHo.
Depends on space and many more things !
And as in post #11 on Uk farm sites in the summer farmers want you to dump grey water somewhere suitable on their land..
Not a good idea now of course !

Hey Iain55,

No need to take your Wastemaster to the continent.

 

[Nosmo king]

Most sites we’ve been to in Germany have fully serviced pitches, they are a bit fussy about just dumping on the grass

 

[HurricaneSmith]

I remember one small site in Southern Europe where I was directed to park on a tennis court. It felt really strange.

The grey waste point was about 100 yards away and needed the wastemaster.

 

[Winger]

In my experience I empty the black waste then use the toilet cassette to lug the grey waste which I empty into the black waste disposal point. Works fine
