I use a Flojet portable with a 50 foot 3/4 inch hose. There is a slight uphill from the trailer to the sewer cleanout, where the hose dumps the black water.
With a 125 foot run, I strongly recommend the biggest diameter hose you can get -- 3/4, not 5/8. Otherwise, you will have a lot of friction and back-pressure in the hose.
And try a test run with clear water before you try it with black water. Good luck!
