Regarding grey water, if you're not in a crowded or populated campground, just dump it, if you're in the woods. A little shower water and dish water never hurt anything. Where do you think the campground sewer goes? Not to a treatment plant.....
I have drained grey, while out in the desert boondocking, but never in a campground regardless of how crowded or uncrowded it is. Grey water can stink even worse than black water, since it has food and skin particles in it and sits, "stewing", without chemicals in the tank. But more importantly, depending on where you're at, dumping grey water on the ground can get you a pretty hefty fine.
I knew this post would generate a little feedback, so let me explain......I'm not talking about flooding the grass in the middle of the KOA with month old dishwater. Besides any fhu campgrounds rv parks typically have dump stations. Yeah that's gross and very cousin eddy...ish.
However, if in more remote camp grounds (where we camp pretty much exclusively), 3 or 4 days worth of dish water and bath water doesn't stink, If you use SOAP. Little garden hose run off into the bushes where no one will walk thru it and some dry ground to soak it up is no harm no foul.
So yeah, boonie docking or remote ish campgrounds, I say no problem.
How many dump at home? Not talking a week long taco eating contest full black tank! but a black tank flush, dump out the gray water.....I do. My dogs, and the deer and elk poop and pee all over the yard, so same difference.
