Freshwater Tank Refilling - What Do You Do?
When in a campground without potable water (either none at all or the spigots aren't turned on yet for the summer) what do you do to manage your water use and/or refill your freshwater tank as needed?...

It takes some time to become comfy with reducing your water usage. So many are used to letting the water run for no apparent reason. I find myself trickling the water in the stick house just like I'm camping now adays.
I use the 6 gal. greenies to refil the trailer. I can get one in the tank in about 45 seconds with the vent stopper pulled out of the hole. Now, of course they're heavy and you have to support the spout so it doesn't break off, but once tipped up into the fill tube, it makes a nearly perfect seal. I fill them as soon as we're set up and store them under the trailer. Seems like the tank runs empty about midnight almost every time. Don't like running to the spigot at that hour.
