Boondocking---sewer black and "gray"
Is it easier to move trailer every 7 days and dump OR get some transfer tanks in pickup and macerator pump to tank then go to dump? We have water and power but no way to dispose of waste yet. What...

Depending on rig choice, I've found a few ways to deal with waste while boondocking:
1: Place the Blue Boy in the truck bed, use the above mentioned macerator pump to push the black/gray water into the tank. Then, use the built in valve to empty at the dump station. Since the pump does the work, your back doesn't have to.
2: Buy 1000 "plastic T-shirt bags" from Amazon for $17 + shipping, line the toilet with one, do #2, drop the soiled bag in another bag, wrap it tightly, toss it in a trash bag. Caveat: Be VERY careful to ensure the trash bag does not get flushed into the black tank. Maybe even attach it to a tether somehow. I have found this method quite workable at minimizing black tank contents.
3: By minimizing black tank use, I can use a five gallon bucket to transfer gray tank stuff to the black tank. However, be careful on this... once the black tank is full, your boondocking expedition is over.
