Different Ways to Empty a Waste Tote?
I have a waste tote that requires it to be stood-up vertically to empty (via gravity). After filling it with my macerator, this waste tote weighs 250-300 lbs. when full---just way too heavy, cumberso...

I have the basic tote like this:
I never lift it when full, just roll it over to the truck and use a cinch strap to attach to the trailer hitch. Drive slowly towing the tote, then roll over to the dump receptacle. Hold your breath, open the hatch, attach dump hose, and stand it up to drain. I could lift it up into the truck, but it's a gut buster when it's full. Why it has wheels, so you can tow it to the dump station.
I agree a 4 wheeler with a blade valve so you could attach the hose first would be nice, I just don't use mine that much.
