Like other has said the easiest thing to do would be to pump out of the extra tanks and into your regular tank when needed then you could refill the portable extra tanks anywhere.
We use a 5 gallon portable tank to refill. However, dumping the gray has been of some concern. One campground we like has the rv sites at the top of the "mountain" with the dump station about 1 mile away down a steep hill. We have a portable dump tank but have worried about hauling it so far especially down such a steep hill. The solution we want to try is to put the 35 gallon dump tank in the back of the truck and use a 12v pump to pump the gray water through a garden hose up into the tank in the bed of the truck. That way we can just drive the truck to the dump station to unload instead of having to drive so slow and risk losing the tank if we pulled it behind.
Harbor Freight has one that looks to be just the ticket.

I'm sure it could serve the same purpose for transfering you fresh water
