Won't hurt a thing.
One of the things I try to remember to do after emptying the grey tank before heading home, depending on your unit you have 6 to 10 gallons of hot water in your water heater. Drain the grey tank. Close the drain. Now go inside and run all the hot water you have into your sink drain. Let it sit for 5 minutes and then drain the grey tank again. Your grey tank catches a good bit of grease from cleaning up after dinner. The hot water can help soften up those greases and get them moving out of the tank. After the second draining add some more water and chemicals to leave in the tank. It will slosh around on the way home.
