Septic Holding Tank that's portable?

Hello, everyone.
I bought a trailer recently that I use full-time that's parked in the backyard of my sisters home, and I have some concerns about the black water.

I try not to use my bathroom in the trailer because I currently don't have my truck so I can't take it to dumping sites, but It's not 2/3 Full and the very close to being full. I was doing research and I found some portable Septic Holding tank that's 250 gallons. We have a septic system but it does not have hooks up, and the place that we use to empty said they will empty the trailer but it's at an expensive price since they are coming all this way to drain a trailer, so my question is ...


Does anyone have any experience with portable septic holding tanks? I have provided a link below of the one I am looking at.

Any advice will be great, I just don't know what else to do and I don't want it to fill up and then I have a huge mess in my hands. Thank you to all!

Remember that water weighs 8.25 pounds per gallon. If your full tank is 40 gallons that's 330 pounds. NOT easy to move around a container weighing that much. And what does the proposed 250 gallon tank weigh empty? Be careful quickly pouring a large amount of water into a home septic system. It may not be able to handle that volume quickly.
