1. Carry more hose than you think you'll ever need.
2. Get a bigger tote than you think you'll ever need. If your largest tank is 41 gallon, look for a tote that is at LEAST 41 gallon (or bigger). They have wheels, they can be pulled by your car/truck to the dump site.
3. Use water sparingly in your camper so you don't have to dump until you break camp, then you can tow your entire camper to the dump station. Navy showers, pour dish water on the ground or in the fire pit. Never let the faucet just run, even if you need hot water. Any water running will go into the tank and there goes your space.
4. Use water outside the camper as much as possible to avoid your holding tanks from filling up before your camp is over.
5. Get campsites with full hooks so you CAN run water as much as you want and dump as much as you want.
6. Practice water conservation at home so it's not such a strange animal when you go camping.
