Dumping tanks at home??
I'm new to RVing and am looking into the possibility of dumping the tanks at home. Our house is maybe 3 feet above the street. There is one port to the sewer near the street with a loose plastic cap...

60' uphill. If I had clean out I would use it but it indeed may be against some city ordinance. It's sewage going into a sewage system so it won't hurt but most places charge for sewer so the would consider it a theft.
You have your own septic tank. The OP wants to put it in a storm drain/curb drain.
From what I am reading, the OP is saying that he has a sewer clean-out, not a storm drain. When they put sewers in my area, I had them put a clean-out near the street and use it all the time to dump. It goes right into the sewer with the rest of the unmentionables from our house. It works fine, but I have it within 5' of the curb. Sounds like without a macerater it would be a chore for you.
