Sewer Hose Cleaning and Storing

I cannot imagine what that must smell like after a week or so in the sun. I doubt the stench will ever come out of that bumper carrier. After a while you will have to deal with built on gunk and rust.

Re-read my post, I didnt say I put it in the bumper, but the PVC hose carrier thats mounted to the top of my bumper so there is no gunk or rust. Honestly I never noticed any odor at all from it and I have been doing it like this for 15yrs.

I actually store mine in the bumper. I dump gray water last, then disconnect it and stick it in there and put the vented end caps on. I can see surface rust but there's no danger of it rusting through. It doesn't stink either, but I'm not in the habit of sticking my nose in there just to make sure.
