? How Much Weight to Hold Sewer Elbow?

How much weight, if any, is needed to securely hold the elbow sewer connection in place?
Not in market to buy Sewie Pig - looks too cute, too likely to walk away. In the past when we've had a sewer connection we've always pulled the hose out when the tanks needed dumping, using a tree branch fork to hold the hose in the drain, then put it away again. Never had an elbow sewer connection or felt the need for one. Last week a no-longer-camping widow gave us one, plus a ton of other RVing accessories, so having it we figure we'll be using it.

  • If you go to the grocery store, pickup 2 gallon Ziplock bags. You can fill them with water and add the needed weight. Dump when them out when done.
