portable RV waste tanks

Will be needing a portable RV waste tank when we are campground hosts. Any suggestions on which one to purchase? Would appreciate pros and cons of whichever one you have used. Thanks.

  • Just keep in mind that water weighs approx. 8 lbs per gallon.
  • We had the 35 gallon Thetford model. Worked good for us the few times we used it. You will have advocates of the Barkers (blue ones). From our experience, the barkers were more expensive and itwas just not worth it for us to spend the extra money on one of them. And we are glad we didn't. If we used a lot, then perhaps it might of made a difference, but I am not sure of that.
