Waste water tote, suggestions, hints, HELP

Just another question. I am wondering what size waste water tote to get. Best place to get it and what brand seems to be best. I am ordering the Rhinoflex brand disposal combo 15 foot and wondering if I should get the 10 ft extension also. To be safe I am also got a water regulator, cleanout plug wrench combo, surge suppressor, 90 degree elbow, drill socket for stabilizers, 30inch tv, hatchet, rubber mallet ,duct tape, fresh water hose, wheel chocks, disposable gloves , a few fold up chairs in a bag and my wife lol
Anything else some of you more experienced rvers think I should consider? Thinking seriously about an electric jack as I have arthritis.
I appreciate everyones input. Any ideas where a nice long term reasonable site for long term for next January and February in Florida or Arizona or Texas? I can't stand the cold any longer and would like a safe place to leave the TT while we explore or take a cruise or zoom home to Tennessee for a week.
thanks
  • For waste water, I prefer a small 5 gallon jug I can dump down the drain at a spigot, sink or toilet. Usually I only need to get rid of a few gallons and the jug makes that easy.

    As to the tote question, generally, you want to get the biggest you can afford, or close to your grey tank size. Thetford and Barker are the two big brands. Both are fine. Barker is the original I believe. I've got a 32 gal 2 wheel Barker and it works great. I have a 40 gal grey tank btw and it gets me by just fine If you go bigger, you might want to look at the 4 wheel models. Thetford has a side discharge model that a lot of folks like too. I paid about $180 off Amazon with free shipping about 6 or 7 years ago. Most don't use it for the black tank as the black hardly ever gets full, but you could if you wanted to.
