This does not happen with a properly constructed and maintained sewer system.
Agree...the tank has two sides....when the first side gets to a certain level, it will spill over into the second side...but it's not solid waste, its liquid...once the second tank gets to a certain level in our tank, it activates our pump via a float. Then the pump sends it to the leach field. It would take more than the average RV's tank to cause any worries. I asked the guy who pumped our tank about it and he said it was ok and even told me what I needed to do it. Of course you do not want to dump an RV tank every day. But every once in a while is ok.
As far as the mother in law. What about her using the bathroom inside the home?
