How many carry the blue or gray totes for gray/black water?  Which one?  And where do you carry it?

We are planning a week's vacation at a state park that does not have sewer hook-ups.  Depending on how close we are to the bath house, I imagine that we will need to dump before the week is out.  And I'm thinking a tote will be a lot easier than moving the trailer to the dump station.

We have a Barker 15 gallon holding tank that we couldnt do without. We seldom camp at a campsite with sewer hookups and after two days the trailer black tank is full. The Barker has been a godsend, we use the tow hook and trailer it down to the camp dump station and take care of business. I got mine thru JC Whitney when they went on sale.It really pays to shop around. We tote ours in the back of my truck or in the trailer when traveling, then once set up we just scoot it under the trailer till needed.

I have the Barker 22 gallon tank and couldn't do without it either since we often camp in State Parks with no sewer hook up.  I've never had a problem with the Black water tank filling up but the Gray water will fill up in a couple of days.  The larger tank reduces the number of trips to dump.  When it comes time to dump I tow it behind the vehicle and have never had a problem.


In my case I fashioned a rack for it on the back bumper of the trailer using those galvanized pieces of angle iron found at home centers.  It may not be pretty but it works.

Thanks, guys.  I did fill up the black tank last weekend – first time for that, but we had full hook-ups.  I would imagine for a week, I'm going to have issues with both tanks if both of us go.
