3) Keep the tote in the bed of the truck and get a macerator pump to pump the gray into the tote on the truck. Then drive to the dump station and empty the gray from the bed of the truck with a long stinky slinky.
Are there any other ideas? I kind of like option 3 but I don't know how loud a macerator pump is and how quickly it would pump 35 gallons of gray water. The run would probably be about 15' across the sand and then up into the bed of the truck.

For 35 gallons, it takes 5-6 minutes. The pump is noisy but not hella loud. It seems louder when you're right next to it, but walk away a little and it isn't terrible.
