Well done Scotland

Link worked a treat.
I think I'd make a point of using them, even if we didn't really need it.
10/10
 
We should get admin to send an official well done and thank you from the forums

At last this has to be the beginning of better times. But we need many more.

Also if you use this facility please thank them, show your appreciation for what they have done.
 
This is where we bought our Van from, although it looks like they may have changed owner?
 
Its good to think that all the people hiring from Highland Campers will be shown a good disposal point and how to use it;)
 
Scotland seems to be getting their act together Heres the coordinates 57.520570 -4.069249 and their website for those of us without Facebook
 
Hopefully someone can visit and verify it so that it can go onto the database

Thanks for the coordinates.

I will add it to the POIs.

I hope the lane is now wider than it appears on Streetview ...

I thanked Highland Campers by email and directed them to this thread and Jo Page who answered after reading this post asked me to assure everyone that they do give a thorough demo to all their customers
 
I know several Motorhome dealers offer this for free - its facilities that they all have and its costs them nothing to allow you to use AND its gets you through the door to look at their tasty merchandice

for an extra couple of quid the C&CC throw in a hot shower and use of their washing machines (additional charge)
 
I think that this is great. There is a cost to providing such facilities and £5 is very reasonable. Some seem to think that everything should be provided free.

actually there isnt, at least not a cost that can be measured - its probably a fraction of a penny

Anywhere that trades in motorhomes is going to have a sluice anyway - there are several amusing youtubes of dealers (or at least their staff) emptying cassettes of motorhomes which have been traded in so the cost comes down to the cost of 2 gallons of water to flush (no water rates in scotland for domestic purposes but I dont know what the business rate is)


Its not that I expect stuff for free but I dont expect to be ripped off and I certainly dont want to have to be gratefull for allowing someone to rip me off.

£5 is at least a high commercial rate and from the video they expect you to go into the shop and spend money as well!




During the summer I called in at a dealer to ask if I could empty my cassette there was no problem, he offered water and said I could stay overnight if I wanted and didnt mind being locked in - I have done this in several places and never been asked for money so lets not get too excited about someone wanting to take £5 out of our wallets

Well there’s always going to be that one person who has to put down anything that looks like a step in the right direction I for one absolutely don’t mind paying a fiver to top up and empty and like you I have gone into dealers and asked most are obliging but if they don’t want paying I always stick something in their on the counter charity box I never expect anything for nothing and don’t feel like I am being robbed I am simply paying for a service that I need.

What can you buy for a fiver these days. They are offering services we need for a fiver, what’s not to like about that. As Annie has said you would leave a donation or payment if even if it wasn’t asked for. Well I would and I’m a miserable Scotsman.
