Seasonal sewer hookup

With the axle problems we have had and with just having our 3rd baby, we decided to go seasonal this year and just parked our camper. I am planning on running abs pipe and I think I have it all figured out, but the one thing I am not completeley sure on is the sewer elbow connection into the permanent sewer pipe in the ground. Can i just screw a 3 inch coupler in with a female adapter then glue an elbow into that?

What have others done to connect abs to the campgrounds sewer line. And yes I did search through previous posts.

    I just used the rubber donut thingy on my last TT. My current 5ers dump valve is practicality over the septic, so I just went with a good quality hose.

    I would go with PVC pipe. It's cheaper. As far as connections go you can go from the connector at your dump valve to PVC and then back to the sewer connecter. with


    a Fernco fitting or an MJ clamp


    Both are just combinations of rubber hose and hose clamps and both are common plumbing connectors available at your local hardware/box store.
