To answer your question they drain to the ground .
But this is my routine since we don't get to do alot of trips through out the year...
I have easy access to a dumping station , so the morning we are headed home from ? I usually have about a 1/4 FW tank full, but I dump the B&G tanks and flush them a couple times at the place we stayed at , then put a couple gals of water into the B&G tanks for if we have to use the bathroom before getting home ? Wash up or ?
Once home I'll turn the WP on and turn on the faucets/shower to run out the water from the FW tank , once pump starts sucking air shut it off . Then head on over to the place where I can dump the tanks..
That way while we're driving home and then back to the dump station any other residuals in the B&G tanks may have broken up/loosen up for the final dump
While doing the dumping I'll raise up the bed /and pull the two spigots to drain out the rest ...
Once back home , close the two spigots , and while leaving the faucets/shower open I'll blow out the lines, Reopen the the two spigots to see if any water got blown down into the low lines spots.
That way there's not much or any water that may set and get stagnate in any of the lines.
And yes drain/blow out the HW heater too.
Next trip I know where, what, how I have to fill up to go ..
Some may say overkill but that's my routine...
